    I think my answer is simply "I carry"... Im impartial to OC or CC - it really doesn't matter to me. There are a few places that I will always go CC (such as the hospital, church, couple others - and others that I simply don't care.

    As I got involved with this forum a bit over a year ago, I also received a quick and thorough education form some very good folks that know the rules. Ive never been one to shy away from confrontation, in fact I usually welcome it - so being accosted by an anti in the grocery store/bank/street/etc. doesn't bother me in the least, in fact I see it as an educational opportunity (i.e. keep a supply of flyer's handy).

    So, that said - my "first" licensed carry was CC, but that didn't last long I really cant cast a vote here as there isn't an option for "just doesn't matter".

    in full disclosure - you spend ANY time with greg, rich, and characters like pennsy & mikey - you too will be an OC fool!

    I started off CC, because that's the way it was 'back in the day'...cc, no autos, no barrels under 5" (that was in Scranton)

    I carry about 50/50 these days; depends on what I'm wearing.

    began CC and will probably continue to CC, nothing wrong in my opinion to those who are willing to OC and have, 2 thumbs up to you, not being sure on how my local community would perceive someone OC'ing, i would just rather not deal with the headaches and hassles OC'ing may present Legal or not.

    I started CC in 1990 after I got my first LTCF, which is right after Pa. became a shall issue state. After reading all the threads about open carry, I must say I am somewhat apprehensive about OC. However, when the weather warms up in a couple of months, I will give it a try. I'll let you know how I make out.

    Got my LTCF in November of 07 but didnt really carry daily until October of last year. I mainly CC IWB, but have (once accidentally) OC'ed.

    I want to start to OC for political and educational purposes but havent found the opporitunity.

    It didnt take long for CC to feel natural to the point that I feel naked without my sidearm.

    I'm always CC but often have a second with me as OC. LIke many here I do so for political and educational reasons. PA Patriot is to credit for that.

    That's exactly how I am. Summer is primarily OC and winter is primarily CC and this forum directly impacted my decision to OC.

    I voted for CC then and primarily CC now
    I live in florida, so OC is illegal, but I OC when ever I can out of state.

    I do (OC) for political, desensitization, 2A rights as well as it being MUCH more comfortable especially with a full size
