I wear some Grunt Style shirts occasionally and my hat when I wear one is a Ruger hat. No stickers, signs or anything else.

Over the years I have often had a NRA sticker on my Vehicle. I have worn NRA marked shirts and sweat shirts and only had positive remarks. That said I was living mainly in the Southern states. When I moved to Texas in 2010 I had a "Got Sig?" sticker on my truck and those that understood it, liked it. Now, no stickers and I dress pretty much plainly, and carry concealed.

Nevertheless, I don't "do" bumper stickers or decals on the windows. These days anything that suggests gun ownership or being conservative can only serve as an opportunity for one of the "haters" to key the car or rob it. Therefore no labels on my car.

I do occasionally wear an article of clothing that might be associated with guns or conservative views, however.

I would say I'm low profile. No stickers or anything on the cars. No hats or clothing that are firearm related. I put some firearm stickers on a beer pong table in my garage, that the previous owner put in. It is attached to the wall and flips up and down. It is almost always flipped up so no one sees them. I use it as a work bench and usually have the garage door almost all the way down if I'm working in there. When I go to the range, I toss my handgun boxes in an ordinary backpack. Still trying to figure out how to move an AR and Ruger PCC without rifle cases... I have a detached garage, unfortunately.

I did have a metal LA Kings license plate frame on my car, but someone yanked it up and down until it broke off, leaving just the top portion that was screwed in...

I'm in the low (no) profile camp when it comes to firearms. The risks of displaying things may be low, but the benefit is zero.

I keep a couple of NRA targets, shot with 9mm bullets, on the package shelf of my car. One on each side, easily visible through the rear window. If anyone is thinking of keying my car, those targets might make ‘em think again.

I've got a steyr sticker on the back window of my truck. I think it's off brand enough for those who know, know; those who don't, don't.

If I get questioned I can point to Steyr-Puch, and claim I'm a fan of little known car brands.

No NRA or gun stickers on my vehicles. I don't need to deal with random vandalism in a very Liberal community.

Gun decals here, is a sure way to get your car keyed. Because people here are so open minded, as long as you agree with them.

No profile for me...I live among a bunch of people that have to advertise their political and anti-religious bs.

I have a Thin Blue Line American flag decal and a Sig decal on the black glass of my truck. But its a weird Sig decal that you have to really look close at to see what it says.
No gun stuff on my clothing or hats.

No stickers on my vehicle except the college and amusement park stickers in the rear window from the previous owner that I haven't removed yet.

I dress casually (no tacticool) for work. Some of my contracts specifically prohibit my carrying firearms. Well, what they don't know won't hurt them. I go to some areas on business that one would be a fool to not be armed. Nobody would ever know to look at me. My EDC is a Sig P6 or P228 (depends how I feel that day).

Nothing on my truck or SUV at all. No stickers whatsoever.

I don't wear anything that's overtly gun related. I have a favorite FNH shirt but no one know Fabrique-Nationale Herstal around here!

I have noticed that some acquaintances take note when I wear a Larue Tactical cap, from time to time. I'm sure the tactical part stands out.

Living in a small town, the fewer that connect my house with guns, is a good thing.

When I drove nicer sedans, I had an NRA sticker on the back of my car. I did it mainly to say, NRA members aren’t always what people think. Now that I drive a truck, I figure I’m just feeding the stereo type, so no stickers or anything.

I do wear gun shirts on occasion. I never did until the stuff started where they were saying kids wearing gun shirts at school was a problem. I made a conscious decision to try and help make gun images more part of everyday American life in my town.

I might wear a shirt or a hat but never a sticker on the car. The leftists here are only brave when it comes to property damage. Any kind of personal confrontation where they might get their feelings hurt or worse is to be avoided except for the most deranged.
