I guess that makes me abnormal .

Me too. IIt's kind of like an easter egg hunt for CHL's.

What kind of holster do you use?

I've been running around with an el-cheapo nylon holster, but finally got around to ordering this, and should get it soon.

General mode of concealment has been at 4 o'clock with an untucked undershirt and another untucked button-up, usually not buttoned. I haven't been carrying at work during the week because I'm still a student (6 weeks to go!) so I haven't been tucking in a dress shirt just yet (haven't had a holster for that either). I'm more worried about the pants part than the shirt. I can blouse the shirt, but I expect I'll have to get bigger slacks that don't show such a bulge at the waist. I'm not worried a bit about it; we are programmed to see what we are actively looking for and we automatically dismiss all other information that is irrelevant. [Normal] people just don't go around looking for gun shaped bulges in other people's clothing.

You'd be surprised what you can conceal. I'm 5'8", 150lbs and have no issues with a full size M&P in an IWB.
