Does anybody else's pants & belt sag under the weight of your gun?

[Mark Arthur]

Comfortable way, Grasshopper, is shoulder holster, or stadium jacket with deep pockets. You go try now.

I like my shoulder rig, but it's not always possible to wear it, now that we're moving into cooler weather that will be my first choice

If you have team spirit then you will wear your stadium jacket no matter what.

Ergo deep pockets are always do-able.

You can even take off the stadium jacket, with your pistol and mags, or revolver and speedloaders, safe in the pockets, and lay it next to you, anytime.

What about a concealed carry vest with an integrated holster?

jg1967, the NRA store has some very nice concealed carry vests and jackets.

Gonna get one or two myself. They have built in holster and mag pouches.
From inexpensive to high dollar.

If you are wearing your pants down around your hip bone, then I can see why you might have a problem.
For those that do not know your human anatomy, when you see 4-6 inches of your underwear above you pants.

My belt rides just under my 'dunlop' and yes, my rig likes to pull my pants down on the one side. I've tried different pant, belts, holsters and even thought about suspenders (my wife nipped that one in the bud!) I've cinched the belt so tight that I was cutting myself in half. What I have noticed is when I'm wearing my shirt tucked in and the holster is between the shirt and my pants, there is much less sag. I've had some success with wearing a "wife beater" (I hate that term) under my "hanging out" T shirt (I'm in a HOT and HUMID CC only state) and that seems to help a lot.

Still haven't found the solution to gun sag wearing just a T and shorts. When you do, let us in on the secret.

This is the solution for shorts and t-shirt carry. i live in New Orleans - feel your pain. Much prefer my XD, but in the middle of summer when its 100 degrees and so humid you need gills, this is the way to go.

I'm not familiar with that gun. What is it?

Its a Kel tec PF9. you can usually find one for about $250. Get the belt clip attachment. I love it.

The PF-9 is a semi-automatic, locked breech pistol, chambered for the 9mm Luger cartridge. It has been developed from our highly successful P-11 and P-3AT pistols with maximum concealability in mind. The PF-9 has a single stack magazine holding 7 rounds. It is one of the lightest and flattest 9 mm ever made. Firing mechanism is Double-Action Only with an automatic hammer block safety.

I must be lucky. I carry my 45 cal Glock 30SF in a Crossbreed Supertuck holster on a Crossbreed belt in shorts and t-shirts fairly regularly and I don't have any sag to speak of. And yes, I have some dunlap too. I prefer my Hawaiian shirts to t-shirts though, because they conceal much better and they're more comfortable in the heat, especially the rayon ones.
