I need some ideas..

No pics, but I always carry IWB. Best concealment option for me.

IWB, Cross Breed Super Tuck, Glock 30 with a un-tucked shirt. This works best for me.

I also use a CBST, sometimes tucked, some times untucked.

I have both IWB and OWB holsters.

Both conceal well, and I find that the OWB holsters are more comfortable for me.

I prefer OWB, but have done IWB when the wardrobe called for it. I don't have an IWB holster yet since switching to .45.

I'm loving OWB these days. G17 covers just fine in shorts/tee shirts. And I didn't alter my dress in any way when I started carrying. Regular shirts will do!

Ditto. In fact, I can't really carry IWB anymore because of back pain. When I'm not carrying OWB, I'm pocket carrying, and on rare occasion, shoulder holster carrying.

Dallas, instead of asking everybody to take pictures of their rigs and post them for you (as you have done in several threads now), why don't you do the same research that every other member of this forum has done.....because what works for me or 74novaman might not work for you at all, and you can't really tell just by looking. There are too many variables: what gun you're going to be carrying, what body type your are, whether or not you have any specific medical issues that make certain types of holsters less comfortable than others, what your budget looks like, what kind of clothing compromises are you willing to make, what style of holster you prefer (kydex, hybrid, leather, etc.) You can ask for specific recommendations, but at the end of the day, you're going to experience what most of us do, and that is to wind up with a drawer full of holsters you no longer wear because they turned out not to be as comfortable as the pictures made them look.

You're really not going to get out of this without doing the research. Besides, these pages are already full of pictures. Just search the site.

I find IWB far too uncomfortable. I either pocket carry or OWB carry. Here is my De Santis Thumb Break Mini Slide 085BAQ4Z0 holster. It is very comfortable and holds the Nano securely but draw is very quick and easy. http://www.opticsplanet.net/desantis...etta-nano.html" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

Depends on the firearm

S&W360PD, IWB, t-shirts
SIG239, IWB, t-shirts
Springfield EMP40, IWB, t-shirts
Springfield EMP40, OWB, button down untucked. (by far the most comfortable)

My personal experience/opinion:
IWB is very discreet but very uncomfortable. OWB is comfortable but not as discreet. In both cases I use an untucked shirt in the summer. But for OWB I have to use a longer shirt to reduce the possibility of inadvertently exposing the lower portion of my holster. I use an Uncle Mike's IWB holster (8912-1 RH Size 12) or BlackHawk! OWB Serpa holster (410501BK-R) for my Glock 26.

Always OWB for me, summer or winter.

Daily wear is IWB with my XD-45C in a crossbreed supertuck. It lets me keep it concealed in everything from shorts and a t-shirt to slacks and a dress shirt.

I also have an OWB holster that I like, but it just seems so... exposed. I know it's not, but it feels that way.

I prefer IWB
main reason:
gun retention .. I can swell up and make my belly look pregnant and nothing can get grabbed out of or fall out of my IWB holster. .... don't ask me for a picture

If I was on the ground in a Trayvon Martin situation or this situation http://www.myvalleynews.com/story/65384/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; ... He can't get my goods.

I wear cargo shorts and Tee Shirts ... and guayabera shirts

Glock 26/19 or big XD45 all conceal just fine.
