Exactly, it can make you a target for a variety of reasons. Personally I’d rather not freak people out either, I carry because I’ve seen some horrible shit in this life not because I want to use it or act tough.

Indeed. I've lived in many open carry states and the folks packing in the open may be a deterrent, but if rounds are going down range I would rather have the element of surprise in my toolkit. That and it makes it harder for someone to make up a story of you threatening them with a gun just because they know you have one.
