Its in a pocket holster. Its one of those "Sticky" holsters (like the remora holsters) meant for IWB carry. But it also fits in the pocket just about as well. The shirt normally covers it better but for example if I was carrying my child on my shoulders it lifts my shirt up such that the shirt is both not covering my waistline (so no IWB) well its also not covering the pockets as well too.03Lightningrocks wrote:I also would recommend a pocket holster. Carrying any weapon in a pocket or even a purse with no holster is almost begging for the worse kind of accident.
As for the question... I think I would notice that was a handgun and I am definitely not the type to be looking for such things. Sometimes I feel like It is something I should do more often. I have a tendency to observe the person and the persons behavior more than I do their clothing or possible gun concealment. In any case... I wonder if that might also be a risk for the weapon to fall out of your pocket in "certain" conditions... Like hanging from tHe monkey bars by your legs.

Re: Not concealed enough?
Its true, but possibly standing in line at the grocery store, or in line at the buffet... I know that even though I've had a CHL for almost 3 years now I'm still scanning waistlines for bulges. For the most part my shirt (which happens to be one that came in a "Tall" size so its extra long) covers it, but some shorter shirts I have might not as well.bdickens wrote:I think anyone so close to you as to be looking in your pocket like that better be married to you.
There is only one guy I think I've ever know with a reasonable certainty is carrying and he's the one guy at church you NEVER see without his fanny pack...

Re: Not concealed enough?
Sounds good. I think I'll see what my wife can do. Its a lot easier to carry a revolver in the pocket when I'm on baby duty than anything in the waistband, especially the Glock 19.RPBrown wrote:I have the same issues with a couple of pairs of shorts. My wife sewed a small strip of velcro in the center of the opening and it works great. No hassel to get into like a button would be and it closes enough to fully conceal most anything I put in there

Not concealed enough?
These cargoes from Duluth Trading Company are pretty comfortable and have very deep pockets. However, the "mouth" of the pocket is really wide. The one thing that I don't like about the cargoes though is there is some elastic thing in the waistline that makes using a holster on them (even with a stiff belt) less secure. Anyways, I decided I would see how it works using my S&W airweight I have on loan for pocket carry. The results are not great. Its REALLY comfortable, but if my shirt doesn't cover up the pocket enough I think this isn't going to count as concealed. What do you think?
