We fulltimed for 10 years without a gun in the rig. If I would have carried anything it would have been a shotgun because I do enjoy bird hunting. If you plan to go to Alaska via highway don't even think about carrying handguns in the rig. It's not worth the trouble with Canadian law enforcement.
Please, no flaming here. But I don't think the western U.S. is all that dangerous as compared to anywhere else. Particularly in back country. We met a lot of hikers and they weren't armed with anything but knife and/or hatchet so they could build a fire.
I found the same thing last year when I pulled my TT 8,000 miles in 8 months. And we stopped at truck stops, rest stops, Casinos, Sams Club, Walmarts,etc. Never once had a need for a hand gun or even close to a need for it.
