I have a newly acquired PF-9 and expect my plastic in a couple days. I think ankle would be the most comfortable, but access time stinks. How do you carry?

I carry IWB.
My dh didn't vote, but I think he plans to carry OWB when his plastic comes in.

The NRA & TSRA are a bargain; they're much cheaper than the cold, dead hands experience.

I voted IWB, but also carry a fair bit in my Maxpedition versipack (aka the man-purse). I have plans for OWB carry of my S&W 686 in the winter, I just can't conceal it with a light shirt.

I voted for the ankle holster, because that is what I always have on, but when I'm not working, I carry in a shoulder rig.

I carry IWB, but prefer OWB. IWB conceals more easily but OWB is more comfortable for me. :cool:

I voted IWB, because that is how I carry most of the time, but I also pocket carry about 35-40% of the time.
