[QUOTE=submessenger;3004471]I could see maybe running something like a 26 with one of those 33-round mags in a cargo pouch. I’m not anti-double stack (or 1.5 stack), but single stack for concealment is the bomb, at least for me.[/QUOTE]
Carrying around 12:30 can hide some surprisingly large handguns on pretty slim people. You just gotta overcome your fear of shooting yourself in the dick.

In my experience, you also have to overcome sitting down. I don’t fear ND because I am careful to a fault. Kidney/Mexican is better for sitting, and transitioning from seated to standing.
I was keenly aware of and interested in the crotch holster company, when they started production maybe 7-8 years ago? Can’t think of their name. Thought it was neat. Couldn’t surpass my comfort issues with a mock-up, so saw no reason to purchase. It wasn’t a game changer, for me.
What was a game changer was the PF-9, which I believe is still the overall smallest production 9x19 on the market. And, it’s a great little gun, especially considering the price. If I do trade it, I think I will feel a bit like I lost a loved pet; if I don’t trade it, I’m still likely to end up with a 43, which means the PF-9 dies on the vine. Because Glock in a single-stack extra-small package is also a game changer, and I’m late for kick-off.
So, I’ve been carrying the PF9 in a shoulder harness for the last year or so, because woohoo open carry. It’s quite comfortable, there.
I still can’t carry a Shield at 1230 comfortably, especially sitting…
Let alone a full sized pistol.

Get a Vdevelopment Group Meginjord belt and a solid holster designed for appendix carry from phlster or VDV. Makes a world of difference.
