Honestly, I think this may be a great idea- what with the current hipster trend towards outdoors pursuits. I've been seeing more and more dudes wearing raw denim shirt jackets driving restored Volkswagen syncros (complete with custom plywood interiors) around the woods lately, and I bet you anything they will soon be adding firearms to their collection of outdoors lifestyle accessories. I think you may be on to something here (just a few years ahead of your time though- wait a little bit for them to find the need to move on to the next trend!) especially if you carry hand tooled leather holsters/scabbards.. A la James dean gunleather.
Don't believe me when I say we'll soon be seeing an influx of ironic mustachios at our shooting spots? Check out this video- it's a harbinger of things to come..

Get on it before the hipster market is flooded with artisanal gun accessories and they move on to the next thing because revolvers are soooo 2016!
I've noticed the same trend. I understand that most of us may think the hipster crowd are useless. However, they still are a large voter base that will decide where our rights go in the polls.
My idea doesn't sound like it could happen. Farmer Market rules and regulations don't allow for selling objects such as firearms unless I could some how argue that AR15s are legitimate farm tools. I think a good argument could be had to prove that AR15s are useful and handy tools to have out on the farm, community garden, rainbow gathering, etc.
I'm interested in thinking about ways to support our rights. We are going to have to get creative to create a culture that once again resoundingly respects our 2nd amendment rights.
It would be great if hipsters begin to accept the firearm culture. Especially if they practice good firearm care taking of firearms. I would love a VW syncro. Perhaps one day I'll trade an AR15 with some magazines for one
