Being 6'4" and 260 I fill up whatever seat I am in so it takes a bit of finagling to be comfortable and not have my gun trapped,Thats when shoulder holster with an extra long light weight denim vest is my travel attire.
I would also like to think that your size is enough to ward 95% of would be attackers! :leaving

Where can you find a denim vest now days?

Re: Driving While Carrying

I've found for driving, (with a loose unbuttoned over shirt) my don hum leather holster has a real fat leather paddle, so I unsnap my retention loop from my belt, and move my holster from my 3 or 4 to my 10. With a loose shirt covering it, and riding in either a diesel truck or suburban, nobody has a clue, and I start off pointing in the right direction. The only downside I really notice is having to pass over my left arm if I intend to shoot out the window. My my 2nd Gen Glock has the best safety in the world.... A well trained finger that stays out of the whole until it's cupcake time. :fire

I shoot left handed rifle and shotgun, but right handgun. Carrying in the car left handed is a pretty major issue. I can't draw or shoot out the driver window without darn near having to stick the gun out the window. :/ learn to be ambidextrous! That's how I get over that problem. :anamatedbanana
