When I am browsing INGO, I know exactly how you feel. However, I like it that way.I don't OC because I tried it once and felt like I was walking around with my personal appendage hanging out. I don't care how any of you carry as long as you are happy with your choice.
Well, pants have always been optional on INGO.......When I am browsing INGO, I know exactly how you feel. However, I like it that way.
My concern is becoming a target for someone that wants to take your gun away. This is based upon real World cases. I just feel concealed is a much better chance of the gun remaining mine instead of ours(trying to take it away) or theirs(took it away). If you open carry better have hands on skills to fight off a takeaway attempt which I don't have.
As far as open carry making you first target that is a real possibility which is the disadvantage. I agree that open carry could persuade criminals to move on which is an advantage. Seriously doubt if anyone is going to rob the restaurant where the waitresses open carry.
I can only think of one that I have read about an open carrier being attacked and his weapon taken. From the story you could not determine if he was attached and killed for just being a target of opportunity in a very bad location or that the attackers knew he had a weapon and targeted him. So I am guessing there are very few cases you could say a guy was targeted solely due to OC.Please cite these real worldcases you speak of.

For this, I like the Safariland 6378 ALS.It would be a good idea if you open carry, a retention holster might give you a bit of peace of mind.
Something that bears repeating to anyone new to guns.I can point to several that have died for not carrying one in the chameber.
I mean, he's pretty new here. Maybe cut him some slack? Lot's of people just jump right into new things. I mean that's not so good when there's something on the line. But what harm did he do here?Please cite these real worldcases you speak of. As anti freedom as the media, gogol, face plant, twitty &al are you should be able to provide 200 pages easily.

People do seem to have a bit of an antagonistic attitude around here at times. We all should try a little harder to be nicer in situations like this one.I mean, he's pretty new here.

We have 192 pages with over 3800 posts rehashing the same arguments. Maybe a polite "You should try reading the thread, especially the first post. Then come back and give your arguments refuting it."
