The conceal carry crowd really dislikes our method of carry. Isn't the 2nd a right no matter how you decide excercise is? I like their argument that we do it for attention. That's all I ever hear.
I do not dislike OCers, I do not even dislike the nitwit OCers.
Aww Geezee, not this again!The main reason being, let's say you are in a conveince store and a perp comes in with the intent to rob the place and see's you with your gun on your hip, the first thing he is going to do is disarm you or shoot you before you have time to draw your weapon.

However if you are carrying concealed you most likely will have an opportunity to get the drop on him and save someone's life, maybe your own.
The CC v OC is just like a bunch of politicians bickering back and forth. The anti OC crowd says we'll be shot first, we'll be targeted for our gun, we scare people, we put their gun rights at risk, and a bunch of other crap. I understand some of their points but they won't acknowledge the flip-side. They may be targeted because they appear to be a soft target. They may lose precious time drawing from under a cover garment or fumble with the tiny double action pocket pistol. We all have valid reasons for our chosen method. I support and practice both, sometimes simultaneously. A snubby in the support side pocket would give me the beloved element of surprise against a gun grab.

However if everybody that could open carry would do so, criminals would be very reluctant to rob a place or try any funny business at all with everybody packing heat on their side.

Amen to that......kind of funny i was just in this situation and they didn't disarm me !!!!!! they saw my weapon and headed for the door like roaches when the light turns on. so the thinking of being a target by the BG is more that crap
Everyone that can legally own and carry a gun should do so. I hold an Enhanced CCW permit but I do not dislike Open carry or Open Carriers. I do believe everyone should get training on basic handgun skills. I thought before I took all the firearms training that I now have, that I could be prepared in nearly any situation to use my handgun effectively, I was wrong. The CCW removes the obstacle of the "concealed in part" problem with a holstered gun and the "Enhancement" on my permit allows me to carry "ANYWHERE" except; a court room during judicial proceedings, any place of nuisance where the illegal sale of drugs or illegal prostitution is offered, any police, Sheriff or Highway Patrol station or any detention facility prison or jail, or any federal property. Any other place that is listed off limits with the regular CCW is considered legal to carry with the Enhanced CCW, even if they have a no weapons/guns sign posted. I carry openly on the job during bodyguard or security work, but I prefer concealed the rest of the time.

Yes. Default requires little and is quite restricted. Enhanced is for the elites, requires extensive training and has few restrictions. No shiite.An "Enhanced CCW"?
