an open carry scenario

[Exbiker]

Here is what I got out of your reply:
1) OC = something to prove.
2) CC = automatic "tactical advantage" in every situation
3) OC = no respect for others.
4) your old

I have carried both ways since the late 70`s. So I have no agenda. This thread was specific to churches. As far as number one I`m hoping that the vast majority have nothing to prove BUT like it or not there IS a % of people on here that are fairly new to firearms and ARE out to prove something or get that extra shot of testosterone. Number 2, I think that in many cases it is a tactical advantage to CC but there is a physiological advantage to OC. One advantage to OC is how you present yourself and the deterrence factor that has. Number 3 then I`m guilty of no respect because I OC but this was about church not in general. Number 4 I concur after over 30 years of riding the highways I`ve been beaten into an old tired person.
