The keyword BANGLIST has been added to this thread. You will now reach the majority of the FR shooting crowd.

For deep concealment, I keep my KelTec P3AT in my front pants pocket and nobody is the wiser. 6+1 of 380 at $250. I used to clip it to my boot, but I was afraid it would be incredibly inconvenient to draw it if I needed it.

Re: Para one of your post.

I own and operate a small, rural grocery store. I carry my Beretta 92FS Compact either stuffed down the front of my pants behind my apron or behind me in a Galco MOB. Everybody knows I'm carrying and it's actually a "preventive" measure. I haven't been bothered in the 5 years I've been here because all the malcontents (and potential malcontents) KNOW not to mess with me. You might want to rethink your strategy of not letting them know you're armed.

An ankle holster is ok if you have time to reach the weapon. Unfortunately in your circumstance it doesn't sound like you would have that option.

There is such a thing as pocket carry which sounds like what you need.

Here is a site for just such a holster:

Since your attire is so informal, you might also consider buying some shirts designed to wear outside your pants. Bulky enough, then you could go for an Inside Waistband holster or a OWB pancake style.

I don't wear one, but I wouldn't mind, though. 5.11 series tactical vest.

Ankle holster?

Only if you want to walk like EYEgore in Young Frankenstein! Or Quasimoto in the Halfback of Notre Dame.

I bought something similar to this for my Derringer:

The one I bought was the cheapest thing I could find at the gun show. It doesnt have an actual holster part built into it like the one in this picture though. Mine is basically two overlapping pieces of elastic that are sewn together execpt for an upside-down trapezoid area where the gun is held into place by friction between the elastic bands. It is not the best design in the world for what you will be carrying but I thought I might mention it as an option. I think I spent $4 on it. It is held onto your leg by velcro.
