Seems to me your concern is expositing your weapon more than wanting to carry handcuffs or impersonate a LEO. You should be concerned but experience teaches that most non-CHL holders don't notice. IWB or some other method is better because it hides most of the gun and holster. But, I have carried OWB. Just make sure you hold on to the bottom of your shirt so it doesn't blow up. Good news, most wouldn't think you were carrying a gun even seeing most of a holster. Seeing holster and gun they would. One way I combat that is wear two shirts. A t-shirt or tank top untucked under a button-up shirt left open. I would suggest you look into IWB more. Bigger pants help and a good holster are a must. I have tuckable IWB holsters so I can dress how I want or need. I carry 3 o'clock or 2:30 depending on the size of the weapon I am carrying. If you have to go OWB then wear more than one shirt and you will see how easy it is to hide even a large gun. It also seems to help with the heat a bit.
