Sorry to disappoint anyone looking for hitech solutions, but upon occasion I’ll slip a little spurless (but thumb-cockable) S&W Airweight Model 638 in my front pants pocket.

For winter wear, a leather coat with deep pockets. One of my favorite coats had a double pocket on the right side, with one being zippered. Put a snubby revolver in the pocket, and you're good to go.

In winter, nobody finds it unusual to see a man walking around with his hands in his pockets. And the fastest draw is to already have it in your hand. A leather coat also has the advantage of protecting you from knife cuts, to an extent.

An untucked button down shirt works best for me...

In addition to the previously mentioned items (especially the basic “sport coat” - it goes with jeans or slacks, I have a few, great for church, dinners, etc.), I should mention a great item:

The “slightly formal” untucked shirt is what I almost always wear (outside of work). There are several styles, and I am not the best at describing them. First, we have the basic Hawaiian shirt (I have about 6 nice ones—take your time, find an expensive one on clearance—you can tell the good ones by the buttons and the quality of the material).

Then, there is a category of shirts, some with designs and others with subtle textures (which can look very dressy), and I am not sure what they are called—either “Cabana shirts” or “Cuban shirts” or “Guayabera shirts” or whatever. They vary from shirts with vertical lines, to designs, to a business style shirt; but what they all have in common is that they are designed to be worn untucked. I have about 10 of various styles.

These styles allow a middle-aged guy like me to properly wear an untucked shirt and still not look like a slob. I love them.

I carry a pouch, holster and 9mm in back of the pouch,slung over my shoulder. I’m a senior, read my kindle a lot, which I carry in the bag along with some meds and first aid things. I’m never going to be a quick draw...but my camo is that old guy sitting there reading...the young tuffs at the mall don’t give me a second glance. Boy would they be surprised. I love CCW... People pass me and smile, nod a good day, security guards asking how the book is...all the while I’m sitting there cocked and locked, 19 rounds in the mag, one in the chamber...and a second 19 round mag in the pouch...and nobody even suspects. Works for me.
