I've been carrying pretty much all the time for about a week now, and things seem to be going great. It's funny, I'm typically a guy who doesn't care what anyone thinks, but I'm rather self-conscious about printing, or being too obvious.
I open-carried for the first few days, as I'd not decided on an IWB holster, and simply wore long button-down shirts, untucked. While the gun was easily visible to anyone looking, nobody seemed to notice. I went to the local watering hole, no issues. I went to the grocery store, no issues. I took it out on the boat, no issues, even at the ramp with all the bending and moving while preparing the boat. I was surprised.
I've now got a Crossbreed SuperTuck, and love it to death. Minnesota allows open or concealed carry, but I'd rather be incognito than in the open with my carry status. I carry a Glock 22, a full-size .40, and it is easily concealed under a bloused polo or button down shirt. My wife does occasionally laugh at me when I'm doing things, claiming that I have a 'gun-shaped shirt.' With the new holster, I've even been carrying at work, which has no policy for or against carrying of firearms. (I'm sure if they new, policy would change.) Even officers I work with didn't notice I was carrying, even when I told them I had a concealed weapon, they couldn't immediately point it out.
I'll continue to use both holsters, depending on the circumstance, and love them both (the OWB is a Blackhawk Serpa L2). It really amazes me how so many people have no idea.
