I wear a dress shirt and tie every workday. I use a Comp-tac with M&P 9c or G19. NOBODY notices. As has been mentioned, the belt makes a huge difference.
To the OP, you may need to change EDC and go to a smaller one. Everyone is built differently and I find i show less when tucked than when not,,,,,unless I wear a gunny sack.

Re: Looking for a tuckable that really works
Ah! Didn't know that they offer the velcro clips now - they didn't when I went a-looking quite a while ago.RHenriksen wrote:Crossbreed will sell you Velcro clips as well.n5wd wrote:That's onw of the reasons why I suggest you go with something other than Crossbreed - Comp-Tac and White Horse Holsters both offer velcro clips that fit UNDER the belt, so there's nothing visible to say "hey, I'm armed". The J-hook clips which are also available are a lot less visible than the big black clips that are on the Crossbreed. And, if you want colored clips, to match pants or belt, the Comp-Tac also offers that possibility. All told, there are a lot of ways to hide the fact that you're wearing an IWB.Dreamliner wrote:One of the biggest problems with tuckable is that the holster clips are still visibile when your shirt is tucked in. If you've got a holster like a Crossbred and there are two holster clips, so the tuckable while doesn't pattern your gun, it doesn't totally mask that you're carrying.

Re: Looking for a tuckable that really works
Loving my king tuk, the clips seem positioned a but wider than some others. The plain black steel clips are not all that obvious on my black aker gun belt.

Re: Looking for a tuckable that really works
I have 2 Crossbreed Super Tuck holsters. One old one with the old metal clips, the new with the velcro J-clips. I also bought a Crossbreed gun belt with the velcro sewn on the inside. I have had no problems with the gun moving or not being concealed.
Some here don't like the Crossbreed belts, but I like mine.

Milt Sparks VM II with kydex clips. They hide behind the belt.
Re: Looking for a tuckable that really works
I am currently running a Comp-Tac Minotaur Spartan with a Full Size/5" 1911, and a Crossbreed Double Mag Carrier. I am amazed at how well these conceal, and with my shirt tucked in, it's just another day at work. It is a seamless concealment. I will say that I do tend to dress around my concealment, so I tend to wear a little more loosely fitting clothes anyway. Very comfortable holsters. The retention is perfect. Tight enough that the gun doesn't slip out, but not so tight as to prevent a smooth draw. Reholstering is easy and smooth.

I did not know that;
I prefer hidden clips; no photo of them that's easy to locate

A proper gun belt should be utilized over top of the clips, both to support the weight of the weapon and to help conceal the clips from the casual observer.
Interesting, thanks
