Open carry looks like it will finally be an option in Texas in the near future. I have never openly carried a firearm in public, with the exception of uniformed service (which doesn't really count IMO). Do those of you in states that allow open carry prefer it to concealed carry?
Due to the fact that it was never an option, I never really thought about open carry. I have purchased pocket pistols and subcompacts in the past because they were easier to conceal, but cannot picture carrying a 738 TCP in a belt holster. I was curious if those of you with open carry experience have found full size pistols to be cumbersome to wear on your waist, or if smaller pistols are fairly commonly worn in open-carry states?
