What gun and how to carry in business dress? - Page 3

I'm about your size and can make an XD Tactical disappear under a tucked shirt with my MTAC. If you get one, try the velcro clips and make sure to use a good belt.

I have to throw my vote to the Smart Carry. Have carried daily in a suit G36, SW 637 and PM9 for a over a year now. Comfortable, hidden, deep and can draw in 2-3 seconds. I recommend practicing with an unloaded firearm of course.

I have 2 guns that I carry for very good concealability. My main concealment gun is an XD40SC (externally the same dimensions as the XD9SC) in a desantis "tuck this" holster. 3 things I like about the desantis holster-it's cheap (30-40 bucks). It's durable (I've carried mine for 4 or 5 years or so). It carries an extra magazine. Its belt clip is less obvious than most tuckable holster clips. I wear that all the time with a dress shirt tucked in.

If I'm wearing pants that haven't been replaced since I started buying pants one size larger to accommodate the IWB pistol, I have a Beretta 32acp Tomcat that sits in my pocket in an uncle mike's pocket holster.

If I have to dress up for something formal, I use a belly band. Wedding, Funerals and such, most of my family will go out to eat afterwards. That will involve taking off my coat at some point. I buy my dress shirts a little large, can get away with it because of wide shoulders. I carry either a Glock 19 or my S&W 1911Sc under my left arm.

Naturally. This setup is perfect for the Monday morning board meeting, or for drinking vodka martinis in a Monaco casino after a hard day of following Dr. No around in your Aston Martin.
