We have had a persons carrying knifes & firearms on trains and police have been called and become involved.
There is a difference between the law and what one perceives they are doing the right thing as to carry an offensive item of dangerous goods on public transport. Not worth risking your firearms & license over or giving authorities the opportunity to prosecute you.
