[Keyser Soze]

Can anyone list a few errrrrr even one damn tactical advantages to OC......Ive been lurking here for awhile and soooo many threads .....I was ocin and X happened X= some negative stuff........Why in the world would anyone OC.........

 

[Fishe39392]

I OC all the time and have not had any "negative stuff" as you put it happen whatsoever.

 

[djjdnap]

I think the advantages speak for themselves.

I've yet to read a story were someone was Oc'ing and got robbed.

 

[Keyser Soze]

I have not read about anyone CCin and getting robbed.

Because they can? Ya know Land of the Free and all. By the way , I have never OC'd in public, just around the house and farm. Just my personal preference . I do however appreciate the folks that choose to put up with the hassle.( even if it's just questions posed in an inflammatory manner on an internet forum) I think that the more sheeple that see law abiding citizens OCing, the more it does to counter the brainwashing from the liberal media. Just my . And welcome to the board. (I think)

There's no right or wrong, or everyone would be doing the same thing. You get to pick. But, just hang around, the opposing sides will start up all over again right here, where you can watch what reads like RECESS.. pay particular attention to the "did not"... "did too" parts. You'll get to look forward to the exchanges ....... as well as the verbal tap dancing.

I'm not going to get into the BS and arguing, but there is one clear advantage that is so obvious that anybody can see it so I'll list that since it seems like you missed it.

It's a lot easier and faster to clear leather when you're OCing. You don't have to worry about any clothing getting in the way. I don't care how much you practice drawing from concealment, it still won't be faster than drawing from an OC holster (assuming you practice the two similar methods the same amount).

In all seriousness, OC provides an advantage when the need arises to present by saving some, not lots, but some time because there is nothing between your hand and the grip

OC, for me, is the best choice. I tend to slack up on my situational awareness when I CC, you know, out of sight/out of mind. OC'ing actually helps be stay more alert

Been venturing into OC realm & lovin it .My big concern has always been some fool coming from behind & trying to pull my pistol from my holster .I received a blackhawk serpa holster for my 1911 & really like it ,unless you have a working knowledge of the holster its very secure.

I could name a couple, speed of draw/less chance of snagging on cover garment. Deterrent effect (can be argued if that is tactical or not). And weapon focus. The BG is so focused on the weapon that he/she can see, they don't pay attention to the weapon they can't. Or even can. They pay so much attention to the OC handgun they ignore the concealed one, or the knife in the pocket, or even your hand.

I think the advantages speak for themselves.

I've yet to read a story were someone was Oc'ing and got robbed.

I have not read about anyone CCin and getting robbed.

Actually, I've read both. But only very few confirmed cases(as in 1 or 2) of a non-leo/security guard OCing having it done/attempted to be done to them. Quite a few cases of CCers having it attempted to be done or done to them. Usually attempted, but I'd rather avoid the attempt.

ETA here are a couple of links you might want to read. This has been discussed at length in them

No thanks. I don't care how you carry, just as long as you don't vote to male OCing illegal. If you've been "lurking" here a while, you are not necessarily new. Therefore, you know the general feeling on the subject and the tactical advantages/disadvantages that have been noted.

I'll let you other guys "aware" him.

 

[Disposable Heart]

Bingo youngda, Someone is firing up their TROLLING motor...

 

[dross]

And also, who would carry a 9mm for self defense? The only handgun round worth carrying is a 45. And Hi Point and Taurus suck.

There, I did it too. Look Mommy! I trolling! I trolling!

 

[printcraft]

Too early, must have more coffee.

 

[dom1104]

LOL.

Now this is funny.

Yes you are dear...you are such a BIG boy! Now go play with your guns outside, but stay away from that Keyser boy...we don't like his kind!

 

[jeremy]

Why OC?!

Cause it is a heck of a lot more comfortable than having 2 pounds of steel shoved between your waistband and you...

 

[mrjarrell]

What's with the masquerading as cops in troll world, lately? Some secret cachet to it? Just that time of year, I guess.

Oh, and if OC were not advantageous then all cops would CC on duty, since there's no advantage to OC, right?
