Just picked up a Carhart vest.
Huntsman had stated a while back that he used one, and that the inside pockets would hold a small handgun well.
He is right! My little Glock 43 fits in the inside pocket very well!
I put my wallet and keys in the pocket on the other side, to balance out the way the vest "hangs"
Thanks Huntsman!

Do you have a model number to see what you are talking about?

The outside pockets on these vests also work pretty well as holsters. Nice to have options when you are packin'

Love those vest, I got mine in an extra tall to help with concealment. Mine also has the stiffer lining which is great, it really helps to break up the profile and allows me to carry full size stuff without printing.

On at least some of them the back is a bit longer than the front so it helps cover a holster.
I do wish they made them unlined so I could wear one in warmer weather.

I wear the same vest as that one about every day. Frontier brown, unfortunately they discontinued that color. Always a little something riding around in the inside pocket.

Mine is 'zactly like the one without the collar that Huntsman is "modeling" Only mine didn't come with a paint pony! (GRIN!)
Even the same color!
And I, also wish they made a light weight one for summer carry. These vests are GREAT!
They also make one that is rain "resistant"

This is shortgrass prairie. A smaller horse is just as easy to 'see' off of. And a whole lot easier to get on.......grin

Far left... Steelhead, The vest you're wearing in the above photo isn't the one Huntsman is talking about! Jerry
