Sometimes still the big guns. But any weapon whose Concealability can't
be put up to 6 or higher is a rare sighting in a city (amazing how
popular concealable holsters and long coats become. Summer's a bitch,
though...)

If your campaign takes you into Southern Africa or some other area,
which in our game is decidedly lively, then assault rifles, MMGs, and
other infantry weapons are common... because _everyone_ (everyone likely
to be a threat, anyway) has them anyway, and it would be odd if you
_weren't_ carrying them.

Let them be seen in a UCAS city, though, and you're talking emergency
callouts of SWAT teams...
