No, it's threatening, which is just as bad, but only if the cop really wants to nail you. It's a very dumb thing to do and I've never heard of it happening.
When I'm open carrying, the only time I come close to touching the gun is when adjusting my jacket to either tuck behind the gun or to feel the bottom of the holster to see if it's sticking out from under my jacket. I tend to unzip my jacket and partially cover up the holster when I walk into a business in riding gear. I've ridden past plenty of cops while open carrying. It's a non-issue here.
