A decent 15 minute piece. At first I thought it was going to slam Saldana all the way through, but then he broadened his horizons and covered it in a favorable light. Was nice to hear. Hope he got through to some folks.

While out at Front Sight in Pahrump, NV a buddy of mine and I met Dave Champion - in a rather unusual way. He seemed like a helluva nice guy. We were open carrying while having dinner at El Jefe's after class one night and he came up to our table, introduced himself and his female companion, and thanked us for open carrying. He lamented that thousands of students come there every year to go to Front Sight yet he never sees any open carry. We chatted awhile. He knew our range master and said "tell Jiang Dave and Jen said hi", and so on. We had no idea who he was until we Googled his name later.

He and Jen were both open carrying by the way. His was a 1911, I didn't get a good look at hers.

I realize that this is an old thread, but, I think that Dave has some good thoughts about OC. I believe that they are worth of repeating.

Please check out this YouTube video. It expresses many of my thoughts about OC. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HaM-G5YOAmU#t=33m30s

Said succinctly - covers all of the main points.

If this is not perfection in describing the why of open carry, it is most nearly so.

Thank you for the link - had not heard him before. Intend to repost it.
