I hardly ever carry a handgun when hunting. Its illegal during the archery season which is when I need it and never during the rifle or shotgun season. Its illegal to carry a hand gun in the Peoples Republic when deer hunting. When I hunt NH or ME is just more weight I have to carry. I have tried and it usually lasts a couple of day then the HG gets locked up and left in camp.

As far as seeing my rifle. No one will touch it ever. That includes Game Wardens. I almost came to blows with one over that once and he didn't end up touching it. They want to check for a empty gun and I alway pick it up, make sure it pointed away and jack the action then stick it in their face. Never had a problem, yet.

Always!
Never leave home without it. Depends on what I carry as a main gun in the field also, so it might be anything from a 22 to a 445 Super Mag. Most times it is a 4 inch Smith 66 under the jacket if walking while hunting.
