Ok, here’s the deal. I still have almost a month before our state dictator will let me go back to work at my dental office. When I do, I’m feeling like I should start wearing scrubs instead of normal clothes. The problem is, what’s the best way to EDC in scrubs? I’m thinking possibly ankle carry, but I have a hard time carrying anything larger than a .380 that way. Or maybe a Belly-band?
Anyone have any constructive advice on the matter? Especially specific holsters or bands? |

Tier 1 Concealed makes a two-piece holster and mag carrier, joined in the middle by cord, giving it a flexible joint. Mine, pictured below, is for my Frankenglock 19 build with a light and RMR, but it would be significantly smaller for a smaller gun with no light. Nobody ever catches me with it unless I happen to wear the wrong sweatshirt, and only then because it rides up and I have a habit of constantly pulling it back down.   _________________ Sinus211 wrote: Z66 and I still fuck on the regular. zombie66 wrote: Mikey is a Bossy Bottom..... |

I have no experience with either, but here's a Top 10 list to peruse.

Jacy, I carry a J-frame on my ankle pretty 9 months out of the year and sometimes I forget the dam thing is even there.
I use a DeSantis Ankle Glove........Best 100$ I have ever spent |

I carry my Glock 43 in a ComfortTac bellyband when I workout, ride my bike, or just feel like wearing a t-shirt untucked. Works great as long as I'm not doing anything where I bounce, like jumping jacks. You can fit larger guns in it too but I haven't done that. It really shines with the thin single-stacks.

ankle. I can imagine those torso holsters would get hot an make bending over an exam chair difficult.

I use a smart carry holster. Sweats, running shorts, doesn’t matter. It doesn’t show.

It's a modern cod-piece. Carry a couple of oranges in there for lunch too. Makes it look more natch...

I carry a .380 in a Crossbreed band at the gym, running, lifting weights, etc etc. It always stays in place and out of sight. https://www.crossbreedholsters.com/modular-belly-band-package.html The trick with smart carry is to turn it to the side like a strong side/weak side holster. Or else you get a pistol smacking your junk and in the way when you need to pee. _________________ BLACK HAMMER ARMS Buy A Suppressor http://www.silencershop.com/blackhammerarms Type 7 Class 2 SOT NFA Dealer 1911 Pistolsmithing Firearm Refinishing GLOCK Certified Armorer CMMG Authorized Dealer NEMO Arms Authorized Dealer http://www.blackhammerarms.com http://www.facebook.com/blackhammerarms https://www.instagram.com/blackhammerarms/ |

Have a link a for purchase? https://www.smartcarry.com/ Wear your running shorts a bit baggy and you can stand in front of someone shirtless and they won't notice. They're cloth, so they do wear out (my first lasted about 6 years with daily use). The upside is that if you're carrying too much extra stomach, it will encourage you to lose weight. |
