Well, neither is ideal but you work with what you have. If more people had CCWs I think that the idea could work. But we all know that's not going to happen.

Are you asking how I open carry? In Arizona you can open carry without a CCW as long as the firearm is visible at all times. Most often, people use holsters attached to their belts.
And yeah I think the benefit outweighs the risks in many situations. But that only applies if you are trained, reducing the risk of being disarmed. Even in Arizona, if you open carry people notice and they are a little scared of you because of it. I don't see that as a bad thing.
