Is a 40 full size pistol (not compact) too big to carry as concealed?

In Pennsylvania, does anyone know if you can carry as concealed a Springfield 40mm full size (not compact)?

A 40mm? You talking about a grenade launcher? You must mean .40 caliber.

Sorry about my manners, welcome to the forum by the way.

As far as wether you carry a full size pistol or not that is your choice pa is a open carry state so if you want to openly carry that's fine as well I live in the Pittsburgh area and I carry a compact .40 cal. The question is are you able to conceal it enough to not give yourself away cause if so you might as well openly carry

OP is a Troll!!

40mm hahahahah ummm no thats not too big provided the local LEO's dont stop you since u would be carrying a grenade launcher. might want to do more reading before buying a gun since you cant dicktate between 40mm and .40S&W

Depends on style of dress, the size of the person carrying. I have a xdm 40 I carry on occassion. Just have to dress to conceal the size of the weapon your carrying.

Better get a wide strong belt!

The 40mm is an NFA item. The 37mm or 26.5mm are legal but if you use the 12 guage adapter you will technically have a short barrel shotgun which is also an NFA item. Also be careful of state specific rules, like in California even though they require flares on a boat most of the larger launchers will be considered illegal. Spikes Tactical has a forum that discusses the larger launchers and has good links to other information. Good luck.

Now I want to get my hands on a 40mm grenade launcher and carry that. Who needs .40SW when you have 40mm?

Im sure I could conceal it with a large coat. Ill carry this one and keep my Glock .40 as a backup.

I concealed a full size .40 caliber...so no it's not to big. 5' 10" 180 lbs muscular athletic. Since I open carry now, it doesn't matter...so I plan on getting that 40mm asap, what do you guys think, thigh holster or shoulder holster?
