Where I live, if a citizen sees your gun, even if your shirt flips up for an instant, and calls the cops you have a problem. Not a crime, but if it happens more than a couple times, your carry license might get pulled.
Also, I lived 64 years without carrying a gun even once in a city -- and no problems as a computer science/EE living in silicon valley.
Now I've carried J frames for 3 years, and I'm glad I can. But this is a relatively low crime area.
If I had to schlep around a big 36 oz gun, and dress around it then I just wouldn't carry at all.
I fly all over the world. Take cruises on ships (that can sink). Visit third world countries.
If I was so paranoid that I had to carry multiple heavy guns with lots of ammo, I'd just stay home, cancel all my activities and not travel.
Stay home and watch TV and go nowhere and do nothing.
I'm not willing to compromise my life style to that extent.
To each his own.
