My roommate has an AK-47 and a shotgun, my father has a shotgun and a couple pistols. I don't have any yet (haven't had the money for a nice gun since I turned 21, and don't want to waste money on a cheap one) but am saving for a nice concealable semiautomatic pistol.
I have never had a gun pointed at me or shot at anyone, but guns do not scare me...in fact, they barely raise an eyebrow here (Arizona). It's still the wild west--anyone can carry anything legally unless it is concealed, and then you need a permit. Now, that doesn't mean you might not attract attention to yourself by walking down the street witha shotgun accross your back, but it isn't illegal, and I've seen guys on motorcycles and just random people walking around with hip holsters.
When I get my pistol, I will be doing a concealed carry course to get my permit, and then I will carry it.
