I don 't wanna get anyone mad at me in an OC forum, but on reflection, I discern a possible vulnerability in OC that does not exist in CC.
I agree that if muggers see that u have a gun on your hip, most likely thay 'll be dissuaded and deflected toward an easier, softer and less dangerous prey item.
HOWEVER, if a mugger identifies u as a rich target, expected to carry a lot of cash and jewelry, then in the same spirit and motive as a bank robber or armored car robber: hemaytake the time to PLAN his predatory attack.
If he actually SEES your gun on your hip, then it falls to him to DO something about that, in furtherance of his plans ofrobbery, for instance an approach from behind, so that he has the drop on u when he demands your wealth.
On the other hand,
if your defensive ordnance is CC, when he demands your cash,at your option, u can draw your piece instead of your wallet.
It seems a little more risky to draw from your hip, inopen vu, right in front of him while he 's got his gun pointed at one the favored parts of your body, to which u may havegrown attached.
Therefore, upon consideration, it seems to me that from a TACTICALstandpoint,CC is defensively better and more effective.
