You can have a weapon in both pockets (under your arms if not familiar with 5.11 t-shirt), and it feels like under-armor. With your shirt tucked-in and flared out on both sides, it is difficult to be made.

I carry my BUG like this probably half the time I carry, though it's usually with a work shirt.

I've done the 2-weapon solution on a couple of occasions, and had no problem - though I prefer to have the BUG pocket-carried with the main carry in the shirt, to allow an alternative draw were the need to arise and draw from the holster shirt not feasible. That's how I do it on "dress up" occasions where I can't use an un-tucked cover shirt with a belt holster.

Here's an illustrated example:

Yeah, I am in that range of height/weight where shirts are either too short or look like I am wearing a poncho. It is very annoying, and makes me want to buy a full wardrobe of the same shirt when I find one that actually fits well.

Try quality shirts that come in tall sizes. Cabelas has lots of nice casual ones, and they're plenty long for me (6'2").

If you look for the sales and end of season specials, the prices aren't bad.

Also, you can sometimes pick up some nice Columbia shirts at Marshalls or other discount stores. They're priced at a fraction of their original cost, and they're terrific concealment garments.

I have found that the 5.11 Tactical shirts to be long enough for any of my movements while carrying OWB. They have become my everyday shirts because of this. They also have nifty "secret" document pockets. I have also had very good experience with Dickies work shirts. They are rather long on me, so I don't know what your experience would be with them with your body type - I'm large-framed, but not particularly "long", so these may be a good fit for you. I still wear them fairly regularly when my 5.11 shirts are dirty, and am quite pleased with the concealment they offer. I bought 5 of them at once when I found them, they fit my cover garment needs so well. You can check the Dickies site with for a store near you (their stores have LOTS of shirts to try): http://www.dickies.com/web/locator/default.asp" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; .
