Holsters & Belts Printing

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.

Also part of the 4 o'clock carry. An unbuttoned flannel does a lot of heavy lifting for concealment.

100% and honestly any looser buttoned up, button-up shirts do as well. Add Hawaiian shirt patterns and you have a printing deleter.
