Those with carry permits... do you actually carry?

If any of you have trouble concealing a handgun, and haven't tried a J-frame snub on Barami Hip-Grips, you owe it to yourself to do so. Won't work if you have to have your shirt tucked in, but other than that, it's easily the most concealable option I've tried (and that includes a P3AT in the front pocket).

Oh, and I'll second the J frame. My 60-3 is easily one of the most concealable pistols ever.

Even an LCP or J-frame in a Crossbreed Supertuck would print in that attire (below the belt line as opposed to above it).

Last two posts; LOL!
So I take it not many people are a fan of ankle carry with a smaller gun? I've had a knife in an ankle holster for probably...6 months now? Wear it everyday, everywhere; home, work, grocery shopping, driving, frisbee golf, etc. I never thought I could get used to it but it was surprisingly easy. Makes me think as a last resort/deep concealment option I could easily tuck a small revolver down there. It would be especially hidden if I work my motorcycle boots rather than sneakers.

And don't keep such a tight tuck on your shirt. Allow a slight bit of bagging to the tuck so it doesn't pull so tightly to your torso. And buy shirts that have larger torsos than your natural waist so they bag slightly above the belt. It is a lifestyle compromise.
And you can keep your phone on a belt clip right next to where your carry weapon is hiding underneath (instead of pocket dialing me all the ******* time like all you dumbasses with touchphones keep doing). Eyes see and dismiss the higher contrast of the belt clipped phone and look no further.
And J-frame FTW because of their shape. Get it in ultralight alloy or titanium for the best carrry.

I'm not as stout a fellow as you. I prefer a .38 Spl +P titanium revolver that weighs 13.5 oz. (17 oz. loaded) and is 6" by 4.5" by 1.2" (1.2" at the cylinder but narrower elsewhere). I find it much easier in light clothing. I hope I never have to use it.
I like holsters like this but with a clip on one side.
Needs to keep the gun from chafing the skin, needs to protect trigger from snags, and needs to not be thick.
It took several purchases to end up with the best carry gun for me. It also took a shitload of wasted money on holsters before finding the right one to live with everyday. Unfortunately you can't try it until you buy it.

In MO, any business can display an 11x14 sign and forbid you from carrying in their store. It's quite common to see them too, kinda defeats the purpose of being able to carry if you gotta leave it in your car everywhere. Never mind that my employer forbids guns on the entire campus. Haven't worked a job since the law was passed that would allow me to carry into the office and a couple of them were in very sketchy parts of town.
Can I wear a Sparkle fanny pack even if I don't carry?

sixshooter - Assuming I were to carry everyday, I would not be prepared to compromise my GQ-good looks to accomodate it. Patterned shirts? A "bloused" tuck? A cell phone holster? Pshaw.
Also, re-read the sentence I wrote that you quoted (making note of the parenthetical portion). It would not be the portion of the gun/holster combo printing through my shirt, but rather the portion printing through my slacks.
And don't bother suggesting that I wear slacks that don't compliment my *** just so I can conceal an IWB rig.

So, so vain. Wear front pleated slacks and Khakis like a boss. Much more freeballin space when it is hot out anyway.

When carrying like that, wearing professional business attire (a properly fitting long-sleeve dress shirt with an undershirt, a tie, properly fitting slacks, a thin dress belt, etc) - the portion of the holster and pistol combination would print in the area of the slacks between the belt and the top of the back pocket.
I am starting to think you are being obtuse just so I will take a picture of my *** to show you what I am talking about.
Front pleats and khakis? Front pleats?!
