There are many folks who may work or be otherwise engaged in visiting NPE's (non-permissive environment) where it may not be illegal per se to carry, but would cost them their job or other very serious consequences if they were caught carrying.

Many states also may have concealed carry laws on the books but have strict penalties for flashing or brandishing your gun, once again TOTAL concealment becomes necessary.

In these situations, an IWB with a shirt tucked in over it is for many folks the best solution.

Here's a good example from this very board.

You simply can't do that with an OWB.
