I was in the States last year and someone had left several in the rental vehicle. No case, nothing. Just a his and hers sitting on top of the spare tire compartment (probably why it was missed in previous cleans).

My wife freaked the #### out. I stayed chill. Friends we were traveling with wanted to pick it up and investigate them (almost like it was a toy) and I said no. Car rental company was kinda like, "Are you sure? That shouldn't happen..." at first, but once they sent a guy to confirm there were indeed firearms left in the car, I had like 3 managers calling to apologize and they upgrade my vehicle plus comped the whole thing.

Like, people hear about guns and their brains shut off and it's polarizing. But similar to that in terms of danger IMO, is fireworks. Just be aware and don't be a moron and have no safety plan playing with those things. That's the issue I have with both in the states. I'm not paranoid of the existence of them, but the moment I see that you have a bunch of idiots in the vicinity with guns or fireworks, I'm getting far away from them.
People are morons, all of them, even I am.
