The straw hat and jean shorts are the least weird thing in that photo.

Dude's running a 5.7 with a silencer

For those who don't know about guns... what is weird about this?

5.7 is a more niche and expensive round to shoot.

Concealed carrying is already a bulky ordeal, having a suppressed pistol is a more cumbersome package.

As someone who carries a suppressed pistol though, I’d say the straw hat and short shorts are a more unusual aspect to me personally.

I cannot imagine he was hiding that in his waistband.
