conceal carry purse.

[Trabitha]

I've been looking for a holster purse...and I can only find big bulky "grandma" ones. Anyone have any idea if they make "trendier" ones...or am I just wasting my time looking?

[LowKey]

Is this too grandma-like?

T, I love the way Maxpedition Versipacks look in general and am thinking of getting one. The added bonus is that they do have a CCW pouch which I'll use for something else.
You can get them all over the place...here's where I'll get it from since I ordered from them before:

I'm very small frame, Lowkey...anything TOO large just looks like I'm carpet baggin' it. LOL!!
Ya know, B...that may be an option! It's large, but it's distributed differently. Thanks!

Yeah, I was drawn to that one too, because you can adjust the strap so it sits tighter under the arm. I don't like cross bodies THAT much, just because I'm just not used to them. I wear mine high under the pit most of the time. Guess I feel safer like that

Concealed grandma purse...for the ladies who want to hide their shotgun! Couldnt you just put your CCW in a regular purse?

That is the one that Rick uses.

[BENESSE]

And instead of using it to conceal a gun that got lost, he's hiding some twinkies from Mrs. R.

I don't know that I would trust it in a regular purse. If I reach into the wrong compartment or something...eh...just don't know that's the safest. ya know?

[kyratshooter]

I'm staying out of this one.

I am fat, bald and wear pants baggy enough to carry my 1911 in the right front pocket.

I have no usefull input at all.

Yes, you might reach for the gun, and pull out a tampon, that should scare the SH!T out of the problem.

My Wife just bought one that she really likes. It is this one here>

Well made and at a good price. Local shop has them and she got to handle it before she bought.

T - I'm tickled that you carry. Smart move on your part. On the purse, just remember that if someone grabs your purse they grab your weapon, too. Having said that, I'd much rather see a woman carry in her purse than NOT carry.

[BENESSE]

Personally, if I carried, I'd prefer it to be on my body.

[Trabitha]

I hear ya Rick...most of the time I carry ON me...but I'm moving to a revolver, and it's just to bulky to carry on me all year round. I can get a way with it in winter and fall, but spring and summer, without a jacket...I'm going to have to find another way.
I have a holster that fits over my waist band, but what if I wear a skirt or a dress? I don't want to leave my gun behind.
That too is why I like the idea of a smaller bag that fits snugly under my arm pit. It's much easier to keep it safer and much harder to grab in a run-by. Getting an actually holster purse is awesome because it allows for easier access while not having to removed your bag from your shoulder...plus some of the better models offer a lock on the gun pocket for when I get home and it's on the counter.

[2dumb2kwit]

You could carry it in a little pack....Like Rick, in this picture. LOL

[Trabitha]

LOL!! That IS a lovely pack, alright.
This is what I settled on! It's a BIT bigger than I wanted it to be, but will work very well. Plus I like the look of it, so I can bring it to almost any function without worry. Finally, I found a dude that sold it MUCH cheaper than it's average cost!! WOOO ME!!!

You could always get a Taurus 709 Slim.
