Without this turning into a OC vs CC debate...PLEASE
This occurred to me while I was in Las Vegas (cool enough to be wearing a jacket...turned into a problem in the casinos having to keep my jacket on) after reading some debate threads.
I am 6'3, 170# fully loaded (EDC). I have a side profile of 9" (I turn sideways, I am a hard target to hit...), a whole 2.5 " wider than the grip/slide height of my carry. This means that my hips are not round, but rather pointed, so any carry position between 2:30 and 3:30 aint gonna' happen.
When I do OWB and the rare occasions that I OC, it is in the same place as my IWB - about 4:00. Serves two purposes, 1 - keeps the tool where I am used to it being, 2 - obscures it from people I interact with face to face so as to not panic the sheep.
This begs the question of whether or not it would be better to have it forward of my hip to better protect it from the slight chance someone may feel the need to grab it from me, but very visible to those I encounter.
How do the other 2D people here OC?
