Lazy CC here; OWB holster and cover with a shirt. I'm not fond of IWB setups.
While I would prefer to OC just to have faster unobstructed access, I also prefer to be somewhat discrete.

I've OC'ed on a couple of occasions in the past, but location/surroundings were such that concealment wasn't as big of a priority.

Typically I CC. It's just less headache if some enterprising soccer mom doesn't freak out and call in a Police air strike.

That being said I have, can, and do occasionally OC.

CC IWB. For one, I don't want to deal with the hassle and headache of OC. I have to go to some places that have "No Guns" signs. I'd rather just carry and not have to worry about assholes and signs. The purpose is self-defense, not trying to de-sensitize the public to the sight of guns, or push my agenda. I carry for protection, that's it.

I oc when hunting here or back home, but that's about it.

Because thieves never snatch purses and run. Not being mean because my wife does the same thing.
That is a major concern for me. But if I carried. I'd be kinda obvious it would make my jeans. Or shorts be saggin

Sling an AK over the over shoulder and nobody will try to steal your purse

I open carry when I'm out working on the "farm". I only mention that because, at times, I realize I need something and run in to town to pick it up without taking the gun off. Aside from that, I'm toting a P2000sk iwb in a Crossbreed 99% of the time.

CC in everyday situations. If working around the house or yard, OC is fine. In public, I do not like to advertise as I too will carry as long as it is not illegal into certain establishments.

I OC when I'm working out on my property. I have had to run to the hardware or tack store to grab something and forgotten about it before. Other than that, cc

I CC pretty much all the time im out in public. I will OC around the house and if I have to rin to the store I pull my shirt over the gun. It will print like crazy but its still covered.
