Do you OC or CC most of the time and why?

[barricade]

cc all the time even though i could open cary its just like my mma trianing you need the advantage of suprize to the would be attacker/offender.

[barricade]

also dont want to make myself a target for oppression or aggression.

[G-Niner]

I ONLY CC, no need to attract attention and lose any tactical advantage.

[HICKMAN]

I do both, depending on what I'm doing.

I respect the choices of those above, to each his own.

I CC except for when I am not aware of it. I have never intentionally OC'ed. But, I have walked around with my sidearm exposed more than once and never a word was said to me by anyone.
I seen a few posts that refer to those who do choose to OC as drawing attention to themselves or feeling like a cowboys. So, those of us who choose to CC, does that mean we are all being covert and feel like James Bond or maybe Maxwell Smart??

I CC 90% of the time because:
- I think it gives me an advantage if I ever need to use it.
- Saves the embarrassment of being asked to leave, hide it, etc...
- Gives me an excuse for having a big ***.

I OC when walking the dog, around the house and mowing the lawn because:
- I'm tired of the media portraying guns only in a bad way and DO want to educate those who know me about it being Ok to carry a weapon. I don't OC (but don't worry about concealing it too well either though) when shopping because there are morons out there that don't know me for jack and trying to educate them is like trying to push a rope. I've lived in my neighborhood for almost 15 years and have a good relationship with many neighbors from years of dog walking and helping each other. Those are the people I want to educate. They know me. They know I'm not a cop. They also know that I'm one of the good folks that takes care of the yard, shovels neighbors driveways when they can't, picks up after my dog and also carries a gun. I am tired of the main stream media working hard to depict all gun owners as criminals and all guns as useful only for crime. I OC around the neighborhood to try to de-sensitize people about seeing a gun.

I figure out of sight, out of mind (prefer CC).
People/LEOs tend to be friendly or at least neutral to OC around here. (or maybe I just don't give a damn).
Haven't been hit with a "man with gun" yet so it's all good

[sparkyfender]

Few people open carry around here. I've seen it twice in maybe, 15 years.

I am more comfortable with it at least mostly hidden. Printing or the occasional "flash" of stock or muzzle doesn't bother me..............

i conceal carry all the time i don't like the attention oc brings
