What? They didnt automatically mark you as a target and shoot ya? lol...as some would believe will happen.I concealed carry most of the time. The only time I open carry is if I am making a transaction from somewhere online such as craigslist or armslist It has prevented one robbery from happening before. I was selling a cell phone and the buyer wanted to see it but wouldn't get out of their car, it was in a bad neighborhood. I let my open carry be obvious and they told me they weren't interested and took off.
