It's not unlawful (assuming the long gun is not large capacity), just weird in the PRM, like open carry.
It's the "Concealed means concealed" theory.
Just like we teach in the Hunter Ed course - if you take a deer, until it's been checked in, when you transport it, it needs to be "visible." The current best practice is to cover it, completely, except for maybe a hoof or so, sticking out, so it's "visible" per the law. And, it's covered up so all the kids that think Bambi was a documentary will not freak out.
If an umbrella can cause a Mall Freak-out, imagine what an 870 or Garand in the window of a truck would do.
