Thank you for your service!!!
I am male so I cannot help you with carry positions as I have never been a female but I carry my glock 19 in three areas. Owb 3:00 winter under my jacket or I'll open carry it there, 4:30 IWB going concealed and if I really want to take away any printing and go uber concealed i carry appendix. (Gasp did he say glock 19 appendix oh lord!) All is done with completely kydex or kydex shell with leather backed on the holsters. I don't do the nylon thing or the leather thing. Here's why, nylon can be very comfortable but it's just too soft that a negligent discharge is substantially more possible, I don't carry all leather not because I'm as worried if an ND but I have seen over time as leather wears it can fold in a little and if you hasten a re-holster BOOM. That's why I use kydex because it will never collapse in and you get the same positive retention every time. You have that nice "click" when your gun goes in. The carry methods I have discussed work for me.. they may not work for you. Strong side 3:00 is usually a no no for females because their hips are wider and pants tend to be snug there. That's why my wife can't carry a gun there. 4:30 could work but you may have to get rid of those fitting t shirts so you don't print even tho it's not illegal to print. Appendix really is a great option and most women I know carry there but if you do you must realize where the gun is pointed and you must be careful..... I hope you find the best method and please stay safe out there welcome to the forum! And again thank you for your service!
