Living in Arizona its hard to carry concealed because of the heat. I wear tactical pants and shorts 99 % of the time, so its easy to drop my s&w 380 into my front pants pocket and there is no imprinting. I know, the 380 is marginal but beats crying and begging for my life if I didn't carry it. I have tried small 9mm's but most are larger and heaver. They pull my pants down and I have trouble keeping them up anyway.
I hear you on that. I can't wear a belt so it has to be something in my pocket or some kind of clip on type rig, most of which I've tried just were not comfortable. So it's just an S&W M60 .38 Spl. in my pocket with a couple of speed loaders in another pocket. I do have a Walther PPK/s .380 but in this heat sweating means rust so it stays home.
