Is it a compact glock like a 26?

The next 2 guns that I buy will be a Taurus Model 85 and a Glock 26. The Glocks I looked at appeared to be too large to conceal. I know that people say you should dress around the gun...but I just don't like wearing baggy clothes. I would much rather carry my Ruger lc9 under a shirt that actually fits.

You'd be surprised.. I run a G19 and with Jeans and a medium tee shirt you can't tell (6ft 165lbs)... I actually kept it from my wife all last week when I was test carrying at home. I have an MTAC and a beltman belt and keep it at about 4:30/5 oclock with a lot of cant.

Instead of wally walk, I just went and got mexican food :mrgreen:

Well I guess looks can be deceiving... I might look at the G19 or even G17.

Mexi Walk... Nice!!! I bet that was one of the best meals that you've ever had... even if the food sucked. :lol:

Hey, when was your letter post marked?

I have a Springfield XD 40 service model and carry with an IWB Comp-Tack MTac Minotaur and have no issues, I have very minimal imprinting from the end of the mag but nothing worth being stopped over. I wear regular clothes (not baggy but not skin tight either) and have NOT had to upgrade sizes just to work with the gun. I'm 6'3 255 lbs. It's a comfortable concealment too. You just have to pick the right holster for your gun and what works best for you and make sure it's adjustable to where you can get it to where you need it. Don't give up on your preferred carry just because one holster didn't work.
