I currently carry a 229 IWB in a VMII. It conceals easily with jeans or shorts and an untucked polo or golf shirt.

I'm thinking about trying an OWB rig. Is it possible to conceal OWB with just an untucked polo or golf style shirt, or will I need a more substantial cover garment?

I think it depends on how high the holster rides on your waist, how bulky the set up is and what garments you're wearing. So, make sure the holster rides high enogh to ensure the bottom doesn't expose. Wear a lose fitting shirt or other garment to cover it without printing.

I wear both using Crossbreed holsters and as long as my cover shirt is a little on the long side I have no problems concealing, as stated above if it is a smaller shirt that is short the muzzle shows...

As said above, I have certain shirts that I'll wear while carrying OWB (longer, darker, or pattern print-helps breakup outline of gun), and any old shirt while IWB.

Oh yeah, the only dumb question is the one not asked!

I usually use a high ride holster OWB with a T-shirt over that and then a unbuttoned cover shirt with a print, and that works really well for me, I can carry a large N frame revolver and it conceals very well

I have no problem with a G26 OWB with just an untucked button up shirt. I can wear a one size bigger dark t shirt too. The button up shirts work best IMO.

I have a friend that wears a medium tee shirt to cover his OWB 1911 Gov't. It covers the muzzle, but barely.

With a print shirt that remains unbuttoned, you will have no problems.
I buy my shirts a little larger because I like a lot of room in the neck after several washings...cover is never a problem even buttoned up.

Anything I carry, I carry OWB, and always with an untucked top. I've always worn tops untucked, so an untucked top looks like anything else I would normally wear. At 5'4" and 125 pounds I can carry and conceal anything from my Model 36 snubbie, to my 686 Plus to my GP100 with a 6" barrel.
About the only thing I really have much concern over is thin clingy knit fabrics. Textured fabrics and busy prints hide things even better, but I have been wearing a crinkled texture gauze blouse and carrying the 686 all day, out for breakfast, running errands, a trip to the range and out to dinner, nobody has given a second look.
