Greetings, all,
Am interested in a concealed carry rig that permits a tucked shirt - I simply am not the vest- or big-Hawaiian-shirt type. I've investigated a host of holster options, from Milt Spark's Versa-Max II, to comp-tac's C.T.A.C., to High Noon Leather, to Smartcarry's, er, unique design. I've now reached info overload, and the cranium just vapor-locked.
If it helps with input, I'm 6'1", c. 190 lbs, medium build, no spare tire or gut worth mentioning (thanks, Dad!). I like to carry a Springfield Champion LW model; I'm not averse to other options, but for now, if I may, I'd like to limit discussions to the 1911-style pistol. With the cooler weather, I have had excellent results carrying in a Galco Concealable; that holster tucks the pistol tight and just under the base of my ribs (carrying at about 4 o'clock); the pistol, grips and all, more or less disappears. Even a lightweight windbreaker is sufficient cover; printing has not been an issue at all with this holster.
Any suggestions or guidance on "tuckable" options would be much appreciated.
