37. No kidding.
A good OWB for those days when it's 115 out is much more comfy than an IWB. And you know what? Almost no one notices, and the few that do are 99% positive about it. You get the occasional "yup"-ing carbuncle on the ass of what would have been an otherwise perfectly lovely day, but what can you do?

And you'd think the anti-ccw ("OMGWTFBBW! hidden guns! HIDDEN GUNS EVERYWHERE!") crowd would fully support open carry over concealed. The people who should, however, have a good deal more attention from the anti-carry crowd, are the criminals. The people who, by their very nature, have no concern about breaking laws. Or going to jail. Or taking your posessions or your health, or your life. And they don't give a flying fuck about "gun free zones", other than knowing that there's less chance of someone pulling a gun in their own defense. Particularly since law abiding citizens, valuing their freedom and looking at even a night in jail as strong deterrence, and so either do not carry in that area (though some still will) or avoid it completely.
