its not on their website as a story.
it was almost as bad as fox this morning doing a short segment on it at a starbucks in texas (they didn't show the name of the city)
it four guys oc in a starbucks, one right after the other then standing outside drinking coffee in a group. It looked like they were doing it as a show of force.

in your face was A HUGE sidearm revolver, at least a 10" barrel, reminded me of a on old western movie, add in the light grey tactical vest, with shotgun shells on a velcro holder.
looked real smart

watch at 2:11
this was new years eve news report. but not the same turkeys ketk had on
Most of that footage was from OCT events from last year, so the larger pistol you mentioned is a blackpowder pistol

for some i'm sure it's anyone that allows your gun to be seen by others

but I'm guessing drop leg holster or anything remotely black and scary tactical which is probably most of them
Chance favors the prepared. Making good people helpless doesn't make bad people harmless.
There is no safety in denial. When seconds count the Police are only minutes away.
Sometimes I really wish a lawyer would chime in and clear things up. Do we have any lawyers on this forum?

I'm fearful that these types will ruin it for us all!
They sure make "gun owners" look like a bunch of ________ (insert word here).
After eating an entire bull, a mountain lion felt so good he started roaring.
He kept it up until a hunter came along and shot him.
The moral: When you're full of bull, keep your mouth shut.

You are either OK with OC are you aren't. I don't see the type of holster overriding the fact that the gun is visible. So those not comfortable with OC will still not be comfortable with OC no matter what.
