If you ride, what is the best way to conceal in the summer?
Array
2002 Harley Davidson Dyna Super Glide. Either one of the following works for me, depending on what I am wearing:
1. Kimber Custom CDP, Enhanced Pancake model holster, strong side, with leather jacket.
2. Kahr P40, horizontal shoulder holster, loose-fitting shirt over.
3. S&W J-frame 2", appendix-position IWB holster, untucked shirt over.
Harley Night Train.
1. With leather jacket, just about anything, IWB strong side. (Fairly comfortable, but shorter barrels definately ride better)
For many years, I also 'summer carried' this way (long shirt pulled over the top). I don't sit on the shirt because it will force a print in the wind, so historically, I just let it flap, knowing that 2/3 of the gun is IWB and the exposed portion is high enough that my shirt wont flap over it. That is up until a few weeks ago when it did, and I accidentally brandished for about 30 miles! Nobody complained or appeared to notice, but I felt like such a tool.
'Back to the drawing board. Since that last stunt, I've gone to AIWB with either a G26 or J-frame. It's not comfortable, but it stays concealed.

'09 FHLX. I haven't carried and ridden yet, since I tend to drift into NY, so am hoping when I make a conscious effort not to ride east that IWB will work just fine. When I'm not wearing a jacket my T shirt tends to puff up with air and not fly all over the place, so I think I should be just fine. I rarely stop anywhere anyway, just ride.

2010 Super Dyna Glyde Custom. Same way I carry when off the bike, in a car, or just walking around.
Ignorance is a long way from stupid, but left unchecked, can get there real fast.

2008 Vision. If I am wearing a vest or air coat, I wear a shoulder rig. If not, I carry a Maxpedition Versipack with the handgun concealed. I usually ride with the wife so the pack is with one of us at all times. When riding, it is in the trunk. Concealment is not an issue here, but I do not like to carry on my belt as the back of the seat lip pushes up on the holster.
I'd rather be lucky than good any day
There's nothing that will change someone's moral outlook quicker than cash in large sums.
Majority rule only works if you're also considering individual rights. Because you can't have five wolves and one sheep voting on what to have for supper.
2011 Electra Glide Classic. Same as when I am not on the bike, G19 IWB.

Blame it on Sixto - now that is a viable plan.
