I think that's kind of a stretch. Where I live I think most people have a gun or two at home, and I do too, but I've never personally met someone who carries them around on the street. (For one thing, I've tried those conceal carry holsters, and found them extremely uncomfortable.)
The only time my guns are out is for hunting, or going to the range with friends.

You would never know it, because it is concealed and they won't go around talking about it, but its relatively common. Also, I'm in a pretty liberal state so I imagine its even more common in conservative areas
