I watched a video last night on a Kangaroo Carry equivalent. I thought the pocket was a little too flimsy with no retention, and the guy's Glock didn't fit the width so it was even more wobbly. The guy recommended it, but it didn't look like something I'd feel comfortable with. Along the same lines, a friend of mine sent me a link to this, which seems like it takes care of those issue with carrying in that location without adding straps and such that need to be hidden like a traditional shoulder holster. I dunno. I do know that I'm not built like her, but figure the arm will do much to hide it. Any experiences with anything like that? I would also like to avoid buying everything to find out if it will work! lol

I had also looked at this and I don't think you would like it. Too much bulk under your armpit and I don't see how you could get to your gun easily also if you put even an LCP in that you could after wearing it for a while have the neck of your shirt pulled down and the gun be at your waist. And for the cost of these things would be bad if it didn't work. A lot of the stuff you see advertised for CC is a joke: they laughing all the way to the bank.

I carry the LCP IWB and haven't had to change my wardrobe at all. In summer I live in shorts and tank tops (I buy cotton/spandex type shorts that sit a little below the waist. Concealing the LCP isn't hard at all. When weather gets cooler I carry G26 with a crossbreed quikclip IWB again jeans sit just below waist. I have several IWB holsters for my LCP's as one has the CT the other doesn't. If you have CT on your gun just be sure it says for CT otherwise the gun won't fit in the holster. SOB carry looks kinda uncomfortable I carry crossdraw style. I also have shoulder holster for bersa thunder, also a cooler weather carry when I can comfortably wear a vest and ankle holdsters for LCP's I have tried wearing belly bands, smart carry and something else I ordered online that looks like a combo of belly band and smart carry. Don't like any of those methods. I also have some little cases for the LCP's that go on my belt for OWB which I use when I wear tighter jeans. I don't care much for fanny packs either. Not comfortable with OWB methods either. I do have a bit more meat on my bones than you do so my little jelly roll midrift helps conceal the gunbutt quite well. Hope you find a method of carry that is comfortable for you without doing like I did and buying up every thing offered before you settle on one thing. I never purse carry as I have a fear of purse snatchers or I just leave my purse in my vehicle and I have been known to just sit it down and walk away from it. Good luck in your holster search.
