Agree 100%...
OC means you have to protect against the 'lunatic scenerio'...the nut that grabs your weapon while you're waiting in line at that Walmart. Not to mention you're probably legally liable for what happens as a result of the wacko grabbing/using your HG. Or am I just being paranoid here?
NOTHING good, as far as I can see, results from OC...just inviting unwanted attention to yourself/your weapon. But as was mentioned, I suppose OC is better than NC!
My $0.02...If I wanted the kind of attention OC brings I would freeball and leave my fly down...
Since the debate has kind of come up...there's just too many crazies and sheeple out there for me to feel comfotable walking around with spurs and a sidearm...
FWIW, I see folks here in NV OC on occasion...no one seems to care, at least from what I can tell. OP and other OC'ers...how are you generally perceived out there? I suppose 99% of it comes down to where you live(?)...
