    If they see it its not concealed. That's the secret

    It seems like the vast majority here do own and carry.
    I'll be first , who will fulfill your curiosity .
    NO - I don't own any , so I don't carry one .
    Why ? - Because I DO NOT WANT TO !!!!!

    My best defense weapon is my humor and no fear from anybody .
    I was in many strange situations in Chechnya , South African Soweto , Rio de Janeiro , Harlem , South Philadelphia - you name it . My goofy attitudes and respect to fellow human bean made more friends , so were no enemies to be afraid off .
    In extended philosophy of so called "self defense" , I could provide millions of reasons to support my decision .

    I should put taxfree4 to work looking up stats. He's very good at that.

    I Googled and found this:

    "Gallup polling from 2007 to 2012 found that gender, region of the country and marital status were some of the biggest predictors of whether an individual owned guns. In the South, 38 percent reported owning a gun, compared to 27 percent in the West or 21 percent in the Eastern U.S."

    "There are by various estimates anywhere from 270 million to 310 million guns in the United States — close to one firearm for every man, woman and child. But in point of fact, only a minority of Americans own guns."

    "More than a third of Americans say they or someone in their household owns a gun."

    So going by stats, it would seem that at least 1/3 of US forum members own a handgun.
