I'm going to have to agree with some other people in this thread, don't show it unless you're ready to use it. There's a difference between scaring someone off because you have a gun and defending yourself because you feared for your life. I carry a side arm daily (concealed), and the only time I would even consider using it is as a last resort, no reason to go around brandishing a weapon if all they are doing is "talking shit." That's the kind if situation that turns people against your right to carry. Be responsible and think, if everyone pulled a gun every time they had a disagreement the right to carry would have been gone a long time ago.
