IWB Shirt modification? - Page 2

Nobody's 5'-10" and 145lbs. That's just a rumor!

Anyway, can you trust anyone built like that? Shouldn't everybody be built like me? Round is a shape you know!

Actually.....Good for you. Good luck with the shirt tail, and be safe.

Just double the shirt over at the length you want.
Play with it until you find the right length.

I'll bet those skin tight Wranglers don't help either!

do you really have to tuck them in?

If you're not required to for some reason, but just like them that way, I completely understand. My dad was a drill-sergeant...I wore my shirt tucked in every day of my life until I started carrying a gun. Believe me, it felt weird as hell for quite a while...I felt like I was committing some kind of unpardonable sin

. However, if you don't have to have it tucked in, it's much easier (and faster) to just leave it untucked.

Amen to the untucked idea. If I wear slacks with a tucked shirt, I wear a coat or jacket with IWB at 3 O'clock, just under my right elbow. Wears comfortably and easy with a Kahr P9 in a Bianchi #100 holster.
