How much do you worry about others seeing your gun?
I remember when I first began to carry. I was very concerned that someone would see my weapon and flip out. Thats when I carried smaller guns, like my Sig232 or Beretta Tomcat. Now that I have been carrying for years I think I have gotten better holsters and geared my wardrobe toward packing and I barely even think about it anymore. Now I carry full sized guns too.
Do you think about it when you are out and about?

I don't give it much thought myself. Down here most know about CC and they don't say anything.

when i first started carrying i bought a S&W snubby with a decent holster and felt pretty safe that nobody would notice. then my brother introduced me to Glocks and i decided i needed one. after going out and spending some serious money for a holster(imo $90 is alotta cash for one anyway) i realized i can completely conceal a much larger weapon with more firepower. i dont want to be "made"...EVER, so i am cautious, but with good equipment, it isnt an issue.

I try to be aware as possible, and check occasionally that everything is not visible. But I think that the vast majority of people are unaware and wouldn't know what to look for.

I like the way you sum it up. I don't think that I worry. Though in Washington State, if it can be seen ( and seen by the wrong people), you could have to deal with a perception of "Brandishing your weapon". I am forever aware. There's not alot of grace out there for us who conceal carry. So we are aware. That's my sense.

I don't worry about it, but it is important to me keep my sidearm concealed.
I don't think I would open carry even if it was widely acceptable to do so. I'd rather not have other people think of me as "armed". (That's just me though, I have no problem with others carrying openly).
