But the next most common reason would be issues of comfort. I\u2019ve known many people who get their concealed carry permits with the best intentions of becoming armed citizens, only to become occasional toters or, worse, stop carrying altogether because the discomfort of packing heat causes them to leave their guns at home.<\/p>\n<p>There are a number of simple pointers that might not be immediately apparent to the new handgun carrier that can dramatically mitigate any discomfort caused by carrying a gun. Done right, a concealed carry piece can be so comfortable that you stop noticing its presence and, indeed, might have to pat your holster to make sure it\u2019s there before you leave the house.<\/p>\n<h2>The Flop<\/h2>\n<p>One of the first things to do is to \u201crightsize\u201d your gun based on how you carry it. I say \u201crightsize\u201d rather than \u201cdownsize,\u201d because smaller is not necessarily more comfortable. Carried on the beltline, a barrel that\u2019s too short tends to put too large a percentage of the gun\u2019s mass above the belt.<\/p>\n<p>If you\u2019re carrying outside the waistband, too much weight above the belt can cause the butt of the weapon to sag outward. This is uncomfortable and can also make the gun in question impossible to conceal. Carried inside the waistband, too much of the gun above the beltline can cause the entire rig to flop out of the waistband under strenuous movement and hang there inverted, holster and all. One of the dimensional constants is that when carrying the gun inside the waistband, a thinner handgun is more comfortable.<\/p>\n<h2>Weighty Issues<\/h2>\n<p>The second thing to consider is that weight matters, and balance does too. An orthopedist will tell you that walking around all the time with an unbalanced load of a couple of pounds strapped to one hip is the ticket to gait issues and back problems down the road.<\/p>\n<p>One solution is to lighten the load. Looming back issues are part of the reason I switched from a full-sized, all-steel <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/Search.aspx?Keyword=1911\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"maximize-concealed-carry-comfort\" title=\"Four Tips to Maximize Concealed Carry Comfort\">1911<\/a> to a polymer gun, although I could have switched to an alloy-framed 1911 or a Commander-sized gun as well.<\/p>\n<p>Another remedy is to balance the load with a spare magazine carrier on the other side. That\u2019s the natural place to carry an EDC flashlight as well, although I counsel against those double flashlight\/spare magazine belt carriers. I\u2019ve seen more than one person try to stuff Surefires into their pistols\u2019 magazine wells mid-string.<\/p>\n<h2>Gear Check<\/h2>\n<p>The<a href=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/gun-belts-perfect\/\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"maximize-concealed-carry-comfort\" title=\"Four Tips to Maximize Concealed Carry Comfort\"> right belt<\/a> will make carrying a lot more comfortable if you carry at the waistline. What the right belt looks like will vary some depending on your carry gun and its location on the belt, but the wrong belt always looks narrow and is usually braided. Carrying at or behind the hip, you\u2019re going to want a fairly rigid belt that\u2019s intended to carry a pistol. This will keep it from rolling over and causing the gun to flop and bounce as you move about. If you carry IWB in the appendix position, however, a more flexible belt will allow the holster to shift naturally when you sit and stand.<\/p>\n<p>The right holster matters a lot too. In a pocket holster, it should fit the dimensions of the pocket well enough that it doesn\u2019t have room to move around much in there. This can also be accomplished with a holster that has a tacky exterior that grips the pocket lining. On a belt holster, the belt loops should be sized to the belt to prevent it from sliding and shifting around. This is also an aid to a safer, more fumble-free draw, since if the holster is free to shift up on the draw before abruptly stopping, there\u2019s a tendency to \u201cdouble-pump\u201d the draw \u2014 and that\u2019s how fingers end up in trigger guards.<\/p>\n<h2>Keep It Simple<\/h2>\n<p>I personally avoid holsters that promise to do too much. If a holster boasts that it can be worn inside the waistband, outside the waistband, on the belt, clipped to the pants, mounted to a drop-thigh rig and converted to a shoulder holster, odds are good that it won\u2019t be as comfortable and efficient at any one of those locations as a holster specifically designed for one place.<\/p>\n<p>One final tip on comfort: With a belt holster, unless there\u2019s some mechanical action locking the gun in place, like that on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.safariland.com\/products\/holsters-and-gear\/holster-systems\/gls-holster-system\/\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"maximize-concealed-carry-comfort\" title=\"Four Tips to Maximize Concealed Carry Comfort\">Safariland\u2019s GLS<\/a>, avoid any one that is advertised to fit multiple different makes and models of guns. One-size-fits-all holsters generally fit no particular size very well.<\/p>\n<p>Keep these helpful hints in mind and you\u2019ll be carrying in comfort for years to come.<\/p>\n<p><em>Discover how you
