I wonder why nobody has mentioned a fanny pack. That's what I use to carry a S&W snubnosed .357 mag. From http://www.chuckhawks.com/concealed_carry.htm comes
"My favorite way to carry guns of this size is a large fanny pack (that is, a fanny pack designed to carry a concealed gun). Most manufacturers offer two (or more) sizes, and the compact service pistols usually require the "large" size. The fanny pack has several good points as a method of carrying a gun. For one, it has its own wide belt that spreads the load of the pistol and makes it much more comfortable to carry all day. For another, it does not interfere with most normal activities, and is completely independent of the clothing you wear (no jacket required). It is suitable year round, and in any climate. Access is pretty good (you just jerk the corner out and down with your weak hand to reveal your pistol, held ready for a strong hand draw). It is attached to your body, and you will not forget it, or be separated from it at the wrong time. You will not inadvertently reveal your gun (flash) as you bend over, or twist to look behind you (common problems with conventional holsters). There are no odd straps running under your clothes (like with a shoulder holster) to give you away. Your gun will not "print through" your clothing, since your clothing is not concealing the gun. Both men and women can, and do, innocently carry fanny packs all the time, so yours will not be remarkable."
