When you carry your guns in the open where every one can plainly see that you have a gun on your belt it's a lost of surprise to any assailant. They will know that you are armed and they may try to take the gun away from your or even worse get the drop on you if they are armed. They may even shoot you first to disarm you.

If you are concealing your weapon the bad guys won't know you are armed. You have the element of surprise and to me that's more important that showing everyone you are armed. Why broadcast to the potential bad guys that you have a gun on you. Why scare innocent people around you by showing your gun on your hip? People tend to call the police when they see someone carrying a gun on their belt at 3 O'Clock.
