I find your weapon is also better protected when in larger crowds when bumping into people may be an issue. I know I've had instances where I bump into somebody who would feel my gun on my hip and give me that awkward look. In the appendix position, your arms are a natural barrier..... Unless of course you are a habitual hugger. Lol!
I open carry so im used to the looks. I wasn't trying to knock your style and I apologize if it came across that way. Everyone has their own style that works for them. If it works for you the go with it. Im no firearms expert and don't claim to be. Im just an old country boy that shoots a lot. I trained under a guy that was(he retired 2 months ago) our city SWAT marksman, has been a firearms trainer for 20+ years, and also teaches our CCW course. He has also shot and killed two people. Oh he has beat my azz in almost every match we shot together. I may beat him on time but he can shoot snake eyes at 50 yards with a Smith and Wesson revolver.
