I have no desire to open carry. When I was in my late teens/early twenties, I was pretty muscular - this often made me a target of some "billy badass" and got me into fights for no reason whatsoever, other than some guy wanted to test his fighting skills against mine. I'm a pretty non-violent guy, so I did not appreciate this kind of negative attention.
I can easily see the same thing happening with open carry - some jackass is eventially going to see if he can make you draw your weapon for kicks and giggles. I see no advantage to this.
