Open Carry? Hell Yeah!

This video from Top Guns advises against several firearm carrying methods. Instructors Stephen and Alex strongly discourage carrying without a holster, behind the back, or using shoulder holsters due to safety and accessibility issues. They also caution against ankle holsters, emphasizing the difficulty of discreet and rapid access, and highlight the importance of proper holster placement for right-handed individuals. Open carry without a holster is also deemed unsafe.

Dustin from Guns of the West argues against using cap and ball revolvers for everyday carry, citing their size, weight, low round count, and slower reloading capabilities compared to modern semi-automatic pistols like the Glock 17. He emphasizes that while historically significant and fun to shoot, their reliability issues and complex loading process make them impractical for self-defense scenarios. The video also touches on legal considerations for prohibited persons potentially carrying black powder firearms.

This live chat discusses the pros and cons of open carry versus concealed carry, exploring tactical advantages, public perception, and legal considerations.

This guide focuses on the practical application of the Glock 20 and Glock 29 for different carry methods and the use of accessories to enhance their functionality. It highlights the Glock 20's suitability for open carry or duty and the Glock 29's advantage for concealed carry. The use of A&G Grip Extenders is demonstrated to improve the ergonomics and capacity of the Glock 29 with larger magazines, and the utility of a shoulder holster system for discreet carry is also discussed.

This video compares concealed carry and open carry, outlining the pros and cons of each method. Concealed carry offers tactical surprise, less public attention, and better theft deterrence, but can have slower access and comfort issues, especially for women. Open carry provides quicker access and potential deterrence, but can provoke negative public reactions and faces more complex legal restrictions. The choice depends on individual priorities like discretion, safety, speed, and political expression.
