    My wife usually carries in her purse but would like to start carrying on her person. What are our female members using to conceal carry? Or what are our members wives using?

    I would recommend Bravo Concealment out of Alamo Texas though they do not carry every handgun brand/model. https://www.bravoconcealment.com/

    I also recommend Eclipse Holsters out of Williamsburg Virginia. They have availability of the utiliclip which I understand attaches to any garment even yoga pants very securely. Only issue I would think at some point would be the strength of the waistband vs the weight of the firearm. https://eclipseholsters.com/

    Both are great American owned companies who manufacture their products locally where they are!

    I guess that would depend on what she wants to carry and how she typically dresses. Belly bands tend to work well with a little .380 for summer casual clothing.

    But if your wife wears a dress, or coveralls, or something, other options might be required.

    Orbie,

    Both my lady & my adult daughter carry in a "garter-belt style" SUSPENSION holster (with waist-belt), which works well with skirts/dresses that are knee-length or longer.
    (About 2 years ago, a STREET THUG from Austin found out how fast that her little Makerov 9x18mm pistol comes out of the holster & "from under a tea-length", i.e., LONG skirt.)

    Note: I mentioned this to my lady earlier this evening & she said to tell the ladies, that IF you are wearing a shorter skirt than mid-kneecap length to learn "the stewardess squat", so that you don't expose your pistol if you bend over (for example) to fasten a child's car seat or to pick something up off the ground.

    Imo, "purse carry" is DANGEROUS for at least 2 reasons:

    1. MANY purses get "snatched" every day in the USA.
    AND
    2. IF her purse is stolen, she has lost her SD pistol AND has armed a street criminal.

    yours, satx

    Here’s my video on the Dene Adams corset carry. I liked carrying that way, but I got heartburn and the corset bothered me all the time with that.



    Now I use a gun belt and a Gun Goddess kydex holster OWB at 8:00 (Lefty). The firearm pops in and stays put which is necessary. Restroom tips all day long for a lady wearing a firearm on her belt are no joke. Luckily this skirt here had belt loops (rare for skirts).

    Also, I absolutely changed the way I dressed to carry. Wasn’t happy about that.

    Even so, there are some times I still purse carry or backpack because I can’t easily carry on body that day due to what I’m wearing so F it.

    Thanks. Is there a specific brand she prefers. Maybe some are more comfortable or secure than others?
