[QUOTE="Siglawmen, post: 1856491"] Just because there are no reports of this happening doesn't mean that it has or has not happened, or that it won't happen. Im sure if you did some checking in some assault and armed robbery cases there are some cases of this happening somewhere. If you are trying to predict a bad guy, well that is you first mistake. The truth is what we call "predators" are actually scavengers they go for the soft target and fight is for them to get away, but occasionally there is the true predator out there that wants to do you harm, when you meet that rarity it's not going to matter if you have a m4 strapped around you neck you are going to have a fight on your hands. So wouldn't it be better to keep your element of surprise? Aka your ace in the hole. We can what if to death, but scenario: you are out to eat and this true predator that is out to destroy everything shows up. he walks in and sees your gun on your hip, who is his first target going to be? The person that is a threat to his mission. Now, do you have a chance of taking the first bullet anyway? Sure, but there's no need in giving up your element of surprise. Reaction cannot be faster then action, our first action as responsible armed citizens as always a reaction so for me personally, I'm going to wear my poker face and not show what I have prepared for these people.* And no I wouldn't do anything for printing or a gun popping out when someone reaches to the top shelf, however if someone makes a complaint it's a different story.

Fact is if you wanna open carry you will have that right and choice, and im not going to argue that its wrong or whatever because frankly i dont care, my choice is to not exercise that right, because it doesn't fit my tactical plan.
