Before I got my CCDW license I used to OC quite often 95% of the time it was at about 2-3 on my belt the way I still carry my revolvers even now just covered. I figure I have alot better chance to keep someone from grabbing it since they have to attack more from the front. When CCing my semi-auto's I wear them at 330ish on my belt the autos are more comfortable there for me at least. I posted when I first found the site a friend was attacked in a public bathroom and had his prized 1911 Colt that belonged to his late father stolen. It was 3-4 on his belt and was at a urinal had hiis head smashed into the wall and was ripped off, they never took his wallet just gun. They never found the guy to this day either.
