I carry IWB at 11:30 or 1ish but I carry a Kel-tec .32 in a cheap leather Ace holster that sits with the grip even with my waistband. Womens jeans are made so low-rise and shirts short and tighter than mens it's difficult to carry my M&P 9c so I carry it in my purse. If I'm wearing my Work pants I carry in the cargo pocket

I haven't been carrying very long, probably a little over a month now and I can't find a comfortable way to do so.

Equipment:
I have been switching between my Kahr CW9 and my M&P 9. The Kahr gets most of my time just for its size.

I also have a nice sturdy belt made specifically for carrying, can't remember the maker though.

For the kahr I have a Crossbreed IWB holster and for the M&P I have a Mtac.

I usually carry right at or just behind 3o'clock and just can't seem to get comfortable for any amount of time. I hear stories of people "forgetting" they had their gun on because it is comfortable for them. I don't think I could ever get that comfortable. Not that I would actually want to forget I had my firearm on, I'd just like it to not cause discomfort

any tips or hints?


maybe your holster is to hi riding.
I carry mine at 3 and low on the belt.
Never did like those hirides.

Now give me a Jordon holster and I am in hog heaven........:thumb:

Just keep on experimenting with holsters and positions. Body types are so different, you just have to find the best spot. Mine is pretty much right at 9 o'clock. I'd like to go up front, but never have been comfy sitting with anything north of 9:30.

I wear my Crossbreed at about 5:00 to 5:15. I put it on and move it back until the rear clip hits the back belt loop. It hides my bulky USPc the best. I started out with putting it around 3:00, but I quickly learned that further back it more comfy and easier to hide.
