I was saw a guy open carrying a single action army clone. Was a young guy too. I was very surprised to see that. Would you carry one? Maybe it was all he had and was making it work. Who knows. Either way I thought it was pretty cool.

I saw a guy, also younger (late 20's early 30's) OC a Ruger SA revolver in a western style holster with the leg tie down and everything. A SA revolver would not be my first choice as a carry gun, even though some people can bring them into play rather quickly. They are fun to shoot, but I would stick with a double action revolver, or a semi auto pistol. JMHO

Your last sentence is probably why he carries it.

Any gun is better than no gun

I have seen a few folks who can shoot a single action revolver as accurately and quickly as many people can shoot a semi-auto, and they can reload quickly too. As I understand it the folks that compete in SASS are scary fast and good with that gear.
