I hike 6-10+ miles with some elavation gain most weekends during the nicer weather here in the PNW. I carry a belted pack but did switch over to a lumbar pack last year. I prefer to carry concealed to not spoil anyones time. In the cooler weather mushroom hunting I carry my 329pd with a shirt over it. But that is a little warm for the summer. I have been carrying my 386pd in my cargo shorts pocket and that has been adequate. But am looking for a better system if I can find it. I have a numder of guns I can pick from but that are heavier then I prefer to carry.. Although I have toyed with the idea of getting a Glock 10mm. How can you pass up a new gun if you really need it. But I think a better carry rig may be a better idea.
