It is not whether you will get found out and caught, it is whether it is legal in the first place. I think this gets lost with a lot of folks today that it is more of what can I get away with vs. is it the right thing to do.
That is an important point that gets lost sometimes. Thanks to Keith B for reminding us. The highest law in this country says the right to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed. Therefore, any federal rule, regulation, fatwa or edict (short of a constitutional amendment) that would infringe that right is not valid law. The right thing to do is ignore those unconstitutional laws. In practice, most of us cannot afford to be the test case. So, chosing to keep it concealed is a valid tactic to avoid entanglement by an illegal rule, regulation, fatwa or edict.
