With 35 posts on open carry, it seems that almost all the major points have been made. Nonetheless I feel compelled to comment.
Open carry is not the smartest choice for most situations beyond reminding all parties that is is legal and safe. Beyond that, open carry is a magnet for attention that most would prefer to avoid.
1) One will have more conversations with law enforcement officials. Some of us are comfortable having thse conversations but remember these conversations burn up time they need for other duties.
2) The open carry individual is the first target a shooter will serivce if he or he is smart. Most of us do not want to be targets!
