As the title states, today was my first full day of being out about while carrying concealed!
As I didn't have an IWB holster for my 1911 Combat Government, I hit up a few local gun stores. Ended up with a Sticky Holster bought at Red Dot in Layton.
Side note: 6'0, 160ish. A bit slender...oh what the heck. I'm skinny!
Wore the setup around the house for a while. Standing, moving, sitting in various positions. I decided the best carry position for me is at 4:00.
Off to Smiths in Sunset with the Better Half I go.
I was fairly confident walking around the store. Reaching for things high and low weren't too much of an issue. The holster did shift a bit, but nothing alarming. I corrected it when we got back in the car, as that particular rig doesn't like riding at a cant of any degree on my body style: straight draw or nothing with this get-up.
Also I learned exactly how horribly my pants really fit. That'll get changed out ASAP.
Beyond what I already said, not too bad for a first day!
