I carry several ways, on my waist and under my arm, just depending on how I am dressed and what firearm I am carrying.

For those that carry concealed while detecting - What concealed carry method/holster do you use. With all the stuff most of use carry (tool bag/trash bag etc...) and the constant up and down, what is working for you.

One of my favorites is this stretchable web belt, I can wear it high on the chest or low on the waist. Sometimes I wear jeans overalls and coveralls as they are comfortable, I can wear the belt under the overalls on my waist and have quick access or high on my chest under coveralls with quick access.

I have a Sneaky Pete holster I use sometimes, no one has ever asked me what was in it either.

I also have a couple of these shirts too that can carry the left or right side. I have multiple holsters and methods to carry. I have a fanny pack I carry in too.

I have several that I carry, a Taurus Judge .410/.45, Springfield .45 XD, XDS, and a Ruger LCP 9 MM. Most times I carry my Judge or my Springfield .45 XDS, sometimes carry both just for S & grins.

No such things as too many guns!
So true....

I had to pull the Judge one time when I was attacked one evening at a stoplight by a homeless guy wanting a ride that I refused to give, I could tell he was on something, most likely meth. When I pulled the Judge he took off running.

Police said I was justified and would not have been charged if I had shot as there were witnesses I was being attacked in my car. I don't want to shoot anyone but I will defend myself if required..

I bought my wife a S&W Ladysmith. .38 special with no outside hammer to hangup in her carry purse. She takes it everywhere & is a very good shot.
Good for her, every woman should have the know-how and have the means to be able to defend herself.

I’ve learned that 90% of concealing is the holster. I have tried many different types of holsters for carrying and I only use retainment holsters now. I learned the my lesson on carrying cheap holsters one time. I was cutting a fence line and got into ground hornets, by the time I stopped running through the woods I realized my pistol was 50yds behind me. I’m glad I didn’t learn that lesson running for cover in an emergency situation.

None of my carry IWB holsters allow firearms to fall out, they are Kydex form-fitted with heat.
