I carry a G27 in a Mitch Rosen with just a pull over or a button up untucked a fair amount. The darker shirts work better. Plaid shirts are great. A good belt is a must. I use a Belt Man, but any good quality gun belt should work. I am going to order a C.Rusty Sherrick US High Ride holster at some point - his is the only holster that I have seen that rides high - I know others make the claim - like the Mitch Rosen upper limit - but not even close to Sherrick's. But I will say the Mitch Rosen works well with most shirts.

I carry a Sig 220 in a Galco Cop Series G519T. I wear a loose dark or plaid cover garment and it works well. The key to any rig though is a good thick heavy gun belt. Other wise you give yourself away by pulling your pants up over and over and over again all day. LOL I am looking at going to an IWB though. Any suggestions?

I carry a Dan Wesson CBOB in a UBG OWB holster on a Beltman belt. I generally have a button up shirt left open over a t-shirt. I'm not as comfortable without the second shirt.

Give it a try and see what happens. I carry a S&W 457, OTW, using Kydex under an untucked button-up shirt, one size too big. Not fashionable, but works well to conceal in warm weather.

Yes, using a
Side Guard Holsters - Home Page I carry my Glock 26 all the time under just a T-shirt, Hawaiian shirt, or button up shirt so long as it’s un-tucked. Polo’s so long as they are large on you, are also fine. |

I usually dont try and carry OWB unless its winter. Just because here in WA during the summer it gets pretty warm and I usually wear jeans and a tee. With a paddle holster and my full size 4 1/2" XDm the bottom pokes out. Some people might say to wear a bigger t-shirt, then I could swim in it! I am not a big guy, I only wear a Med-Lg!
However, in the winter its a different story. I wear a sweater and/or a coat. Wearing my gun IWB does not make much sence. I follow the two-second rule: Get the gun out, present it, and fire within two seconds. Under all those bulky cloths is much harder to to with a IWB. So if you want to wear a OWB then I would recomend a vest or other loose, maybe larger fitting garmets.

Although I prefer to carry IWB I have on occasion carried my P-220R OWB but it requires me to wear either a larger, looser fitting shirt or in cooler weather a jacket of some sort.
