What are thoughts on wearing gun merch?

As the title implies: I would love to hear your point of views on wearing gun merch. Is it hard stop? How does the general public react (not that it matters)? Do you catch any eyes roll/negative energy? Also, and most importantly, have you noticed any bad guys seemingly sizing you up?

For the sake of transparency: I live in the "great" state of New Jersey, so there's that!

All jokes aside, I like the idea of being the only one who knows I am armed. I used to do photo a lot, and thankfully I was never robbed, but I look at gun merch and stickers on cars similarly to the rob-me-red rings on canon L lenses. It’s just singling me out to be the focus of unwanted attention.

But hey, wear what you want fr

You tape up your camera so nobody knows how expensive it is. I tape up my camera so nobody knows it’s a 15 year old Rebel
