How do you conceal your Glock 21

Glock Lover · 06-01-2008

I need holster options and ideas to conceal carry a G21. I know this isn't a very concealable weapon on a medum build person but give me your ideas on what you think would be the best options, brand and style.
No SOB holsters don't like them. (IWB, belt slide, pancake, etc)

A Glock 21 was not made to be concealed. If I had one I'd just carry it in my hand, with my finger off the trigger of course!

Seriously though I'd try a Comp-Tac CTAC or MTAC and see if that would work. You'd have to wear a baggy shirt or a cover garment.

Good Idea TomN.
I guess I'm not looking to totally conceal I realize this is an issue. Just the "BEST" option. It's a duty weapon that will be carried off duty periodically, and want to conceal as much as possible.

Shoulder holsters are probably the least effective method of concealment.

A good IWB holster and a good belt (like the esteemed Mr. Freemen recommends), including trousers that are sized to accommodate the holster, and the gun will disappear under an untucked shirt or similar cover garment.

People shouldn't just assume they can't conceal a specific gun just because they think it's too big and their body is too small.

Mark this date down - I'm in total agreement with Kirk & Rhino!

IWB's are beautiful things. My favorite is made by Rafter S Gunleather. The straps are wide spaced, allowing more range of attachment, IMO.

The 21 shouldn't be any harder to conceal than a P30. Which I've carried concealed to work every day since receiving my license.

the MTAC makes this a lot easier since I can tuck my polo shirts in.

I regularly carry my G21sf, with Surefire X300 in a Raven Concealment Systems holster set up with inside-the waist-band overhooks. I use a Wilderness 5 Stitch Instructor belt and usually 5.11 or equivalent pants. The top of the pistol is covered by the t-shirt or polo shirt that I wear untucked.
