In some localities, it is perfectly ok to bring a weapon into a retail store no matter if its a rifle or pistol. In other localities, its not acceptable at all. In areas where hunting is popular and the laws are relaxed, its not uncommon to see a man bring his rifle into the store. The reason why he is bringing it in is because its not safe to leave out in the car.

Interesting - having lived in ND, rural CO, and northern NV, in small towns where hunting was a BIG business in the fall, I have NEVER seen someone carrying a rifle into any store unless it was cased and going in for repair. If it is locked in the trunk, it will be perfectly fine for the 5 minutes it took him to get his brake fluid
IMO, he was very lucky someone didn't feel a perceived threat and shot him first
Even when I lived in Texas, guns in the pickup window racks were all over the place - no one brought them into the store - there was no need.
