Mike,
If that's your view of open carry and what it is aimed at normalizing, then your organization/website needs to be "handgunopencarry.org", not "opencarry.org".
"opencarry.org" implies a broader view and support beyond handguns, because in many states it is lawful, and isexercised,to open carry firearms other than handguns. I suggest picking up the domain "handgunopencarry.org" and releasing the domain "opencarry.org", because the former so much more than the latter precisely fitswhat you are focused on.
There may be a lot of folks focused on promoting and supporting open carry of handguns and all other lawful firearms who the domain "opencarry.org" would better fit and they would be interested in using.
Yours in the spirit of clarity,
Dan
