    Howdy all.

    I'm currently carrying a Bersa Thunder .380 Auto. Unfortunately I think I am too skinny to carry it, its just not concealed as much as I would like. I can wear it just fine on my ankle but I would much rather have something I can wear at my side without notice.

    Any suggestions? My price range is pretty flexibly, it defiantly has to be reliable though. The Bersa has an overall width of 1 and 7/16" so I'm looking for something significantly more thin. Thanks!
    I am skinny and routinely carry a G26 AIWB. Got it on me now. I would forego ankle carry unless you are in a very restricted environment or it is a BUG.

    My advice would be that perhaps you are too self conscious of the fact you are armed and/or the way you conceal it needs to change.

    That said, a thin gun in 9mm??? I would say a Kahr CW9. All the Kahrs I have shot have been scary accurate for a compact handgun. If you wanna stick with .380, pocket carry a Kahr CW380.

    I carry a colt defender 9mm, two tone, slim model. Easy to conceal.

    I have been carrying a S&W Shield 9 for many years now and it works perfect for me. I have tried other handguns as they came out, but always ended up back with the Shield.

    Wish I had that problem (skinny).

    The problem isn’t the gun but the carry mode and clothing.

    Buy pants & belt 2” larger than your waist & carry AIWB. You can hide a lot of gun that way with a loose-fitting shirt.
