In NZ you can purchase firearms from 16 but there is no open carry AT ALL. That includes police and army (who do not directly require a firearm at that time). It is illegal to display a firearm in a public place. So any firearm in your car must be covered so no body can see it. However most people (outside Auckland) would have a rifle in their boot and that is perefctly legal. Open carry should be legal here but there is just not enough (legal) handgun owners to justify it. Cultualry NZ has alway leaned towards hunting rifles (partly to do witht he massive amounts that came back after the wars). My mate went through Alabama and saw people with rifles in the back of their utes and thought it was great. You have to be an American to open carry in America don't you? or could you just be a perminent recedent?
