I prefer not to carry openly my reason is, that I am aware that many do not share my love for firearms and prefer not to upset anyone. Not liking IWB holsters I do have my gun on my hip with a shirt covering it. The reason I like the OC law is that I am not taking a chance on exposing the gun and breaking a law for exposing it. You can indeed see it below some of the shirts I choose. The only people that have taken notice are also gun owners. I do explain my preference in class and my reason why when asked.
First, welcome to the forum. It has been a little slow around here for a while and some new blood might help get things rolling again.
Second, While I, and others welcome you here, I wonder why you are here if you do not prefer OC. (I am NOT trying to get you to leave or to change your mind.) This forum is for the promotion of, education of, support of, etc, OC. Not that any one here advocates for only OC, (most will say that OC, CC, or no C, whatever you are comfortable with, is what you need to do) but that is the prime reason we are all here.
Third, my experience carrying OC since Nov. 1, 2012 has been that only once has anyone been upset, and dozens have voiced support, or at least valid positive curiosity. The more people see OC'ers going about their daily lives in a normal manner, the more positive the whole OC thing will become.
