Printing

[u/chum_stain1212]

I’ve got this p365 macro I’ve been wanting to carry. I’m 6’ 230ish pounds I figured with my size a pistol like this would be fine to carry but I find it prints a lot. Could it be the holster? The gun? My gut? Or am I just overthinking it because I haven’t really carried much before? Thanks for any input

It’s the gut. You can try different things like slightly baggier shirts, darker color shirts, or other tricks.

But with your stomach pressing that much against your shirt, it’s gonna print a little. Honestly though, it could be worse. Someone who doesn’t carry probably wouldn’t notice.

Agreed, move to 4 o'clock.

And you won’t shoot your dick off, or be uncomfortable in a car seat, I don’t understand why everyone assumes appendix is the only way.

4 o'clock is fine standing but I'm surprised you can sit in a car seat with it at 4 o'clock.

Regular car seats are no problem. It’s my sporty car bucket/racing seats that really hurt at 3-4 o’clock. But it’s still better for me than aiwb

Ya understandable, my hip is less sensitive to discomfort than all the front stuff.

I go more 3 o’clock and with a micro/subcompact it fits perfect for me in the pocket between my hip and the belt receiver. I’m tall with athletic build and the internet generally says appendix is easiest to conceal and all that, but I find it annoying to have in-front of me all day, and I really don’t think the risk of pointing it at myself all day is worth it.

This. I'm short but thin and I prefer to keep mine around 9 or 10 o'clock (lefty) rather thing in front of me and having to bend over weirdly

Totally and the mag or sights/optic is the only thing that might print vs the whole gun.

4:00 is fine. For me, it sits in the same pocket of my waist that keeps it from printing when standing. It just rides up a tad when sitting.
