I live in a state that has legal open carry and I have thought about it a great deal but have decided against it. There are a couple of reasons for this.
1. I really do not want to call attention to myself.
2. I have no desire to make others feel uncomfortable because I am carrying openly.
3. With a CCDW permit holder I always have the element of the unknown in my favor. As another member put it, I have the tactical advantage.
