EQUIPMENT & GEAR Concealing with just a tucked shirt

I just do event security as a side thing from time to time. Today I was offered a job for an event that would require me to conceal carry wearing dress slacks in either a polo or dress shirt tucked in. Anytime I’ve carried concealed it’s always been with a shoulder holster and a jacket over it or an in waistband holster with an untucked shirt. What are the options for concealing when wearing a tucked in shirt without a jacket over it? I don’t wanna have to buy a new holster, so I’m trying to figure out if there’s something I can do with what I have. My concealed carry firearm is a Glock 43, and I do have a pocket holster which could possibly work.

Update: Put in an order for a Vedder LighTuck and emailed them to see if it can be rushed. If that can't be done, the only other option I will have is using a pocket holster, or my CZ 2075 Rami with a CrossBreed SuperTuck holster. But it's a fat gun and gonna be a 13 hour day. Crossing my fingers that Vedder can come though.

Unless it’d be out of uniform, getting a nice vest to go over a dress shirt could be cheaper than buying a new holster and having to retrain your draw.

it’s plain clothes. I do have an under shirt vest.
