Same reason most people open carry "HEY EVERYONE LOOK AT ME"
I WAS going to sell a rifle once to a guy that got of his car with TWO .50 Desert Eagles on his hips. We met in a parking lit and EVERYONE that went by was looking. I asked him to put them in his car, he declined, I told him rifle was no longer for sale.
Ah, new here, I see.
Well, I for one would be favorably impressed by a pair of Desert Eagles . . . as long as they were . . . CUSTOM.
