I'm having one of those days where I have to read everything 5 times over for comprehension, so I'm going to get some coffee and I'll definitely be re-visiting yours and fm2's posts/links. I'm trying to find a video of cavalry draw on youtube in the mean time so I can visualize what you're talking about.

I had to watch this about ten times before I got it. The gun is holstered backwards. When it's drawn, it has to be reversed in the hand before it can be fired. It's easier to see it when he holsters the gun after shooting the first guy. If you watch close, you can see him reverse the gun and then holster it backwards. So, for example, you would put a left handed holster on your right side and then holster the gun the way the holster is designed to hold it, which is backwards from normal.

One thing I think you need to keep in mind is that the more things you carry on you (child, purse, etc.) the less likely it will be that anyone would notice even if you do print a little. You also need to consider how easy it would be for you to access your weapon in an emergency situation. I doubt that anyone would notice you were carrying with that shirt one. Especially since it drops so far below your waist. The thing to do is carry at home and see if your hubby or your kids notice.
