Lawmen in the 19th century (Earp, Hickock, et al)
banned open carry firearms in towns where they enforced the law.

I knew an old cowboy that shot a deer out of season and told The Game Warden,
''The deer attacked me and I had to shoot it in self defense.''
True story...It didn't fly with the judge
