conceal carry purse.

You could always get a Taurus 709 Slim.

I hear they are small enough to tuck in about anywhere you want, have a lightweight polymer frame and they have that lifetime warrenty!


It's really a good thing we do not all live in the same town!

All the ladies I have taught I discouraged off body carry. The last and toughest to convince was a parole officer. At 5'4" and 120lbs we found a holster by going to a gun store and trying several. She carries a Glock 40cal and at her desk, driving or wherever she may need to go. The handgun and cal is mandated by the state and she has to go for training every year at the state police academy. They also do not recommend off body carry.

It was a jab. LOL! I bought one the "polymer frame" cracked after 21 rounds. Mailed it back, was sent a second...and that one CAME cracked. Heard that it's been happening to hundreds of those stupid slims, and it even happened to a friend here in town, so I refused to accept a third. Was supposed to get a revolver sent last week, but the mistakenly sent me ANOTHER slim and IT looked like the locking pin had been pried out and was cracked and scratched. Mailed THAT one back, and now I wait ONE MORE TIME for the correct gun to show up. I've been fighting with Taurus's "lifetime warranty" sense early November.
NOT a gun I would EVER recommend to ANYONE. They've sacrificed quality for light weight and have a TERRIBLE quality control department. They NEED to give you a lifetime warranty, because it TAKES that long to get your issue resolved.

Oh..crash...GRRRRRRRRRRRR!! LOL!

Oh, believe me I would MUCH rather carry than to not. I'm just aware that there are times that I CAN'T carry on my person discreetly, but still wish to carry.
With the issue that so many have with carrying your firearm now days, I'm not willing to make others feel unnecessarily uncomfortable and with a child, it can be made worse.

Check this link out. The website is pretty informative as well. http://www.corneredcat.com/Holster/howhide.aspx
I have nothing to do with this website, other than it's the one I emailed to my wife.

I get it. I really, really do. You're preachin' to the choir, regarding conceal carry. Unfortunately the laws in my state clearly say that if I'm carry my weapon with a conceal carry permit and someone notices it, I can be charged with "brandishing my fire arm" and lose my permit. If I carry it openly, and someone sees it, no one can accuse me of brandishing my fire arm unless I remove it from my holster, but open carry comes with a whole new list of problems.
I simply do not have the body mass to wear it on my person all year. I want the OPTION of bringing my firearm with me if I'm wearing something that does not allow for me to wear it. Believe me...I have more holsters than the average bear. LOL!

I got my bride a kind of T-shirt concealed carry job. She likes it and covers it with a loose fitting sweatshirt for access. OK, no photos wise guys.

Do you have a link to it? I don't know what you're talking about...

Way too expensive for my tastes.

I think that in warm weather I would consider a belly band holster with an untucked blouse. You could even rig an Ace bandage around your middle under some loose fitting clothes.

Makes me glad I have hit the point in time where I realize I don't look good, nothing I hang on me is going to help, and don't expect it too.

Now my biggist worry is remembering which pocket in the cargo pants I put the pistol in. I have to check at least three before I find it most of the time.

[Trabitha]

Remember though...it's a revolver. Just won't lay flat.
I think that compression shirt could come in handy though! With a light jacket or a short sleeved sweater I could get way with more.

[kyratshooter]

The real pity is that a classy lady can not have an equally classy pistol with total reliability and safty, that will disappear beneath sweater or shirt.

Those were the days!

I hear ya! That's why I picked out the 709 slim to begin with. Sadly it turned out to be a piece of poop that ran too much of a chance falling apart when I needed it.
