Yea, so, I was looking to just carry in the afternoon....
Seriously though... I have a question for you all. Does anyone here carry at 1 or 2 o'clock IWB? I try carrying at 3 o'clock but it catches on things, feels kinda weird, and isn't the best place when you have kids zooming around you all the time. I normally carry at 1 maybe 2. Mostly at 1, just right of my last belt buckle, because it's comfy there minus a couple things. Bending over has to be negotiated. And today I found that riding a bike and carrying at 1 o'clock tends to, well, smash "them" from time to time.
BUT beyond the negitives, I've found that it's easier to conceal in this position and it's the most secure and comfortable (IMHO). I carry at 3 when I open carry but for a while I haven't OC'ed because my holster isn't the greatest in the world. I carry a Baby Eagle 90% of the time and there's not much out there in the world of holsters for it.
This is what I have:
And this is how it looks with not shirt and with a shirt:
I know it prints from the side, but I don't worry about it too much. If I do worry about it, I tuck it to the side like in the second picture and it stops printing. I wear mostly baggy shirts so it's easy enough concealed.
So I'm asking you guys if you all carry this way too when you CC? Or is there another way that might be more comfy?
