Which one is the patrician way to carry?
>>64309771Whatever works best for you
>>64309771crossdraw, not even kidding.>can draw sitting down or in a car>normies won't look for printing on the other side of your body>can carry large frame pistols easily because the barrel rolls into your pelvic gap>can flare your hand out on the draw like an old timey detective
Open carry, butt forward, and in a sash.
>>64309771>patrician way to carry
>>64309801nobody is looking to see if you're printing anon. people arent paying that much attention. and if they do happen to notice they're probably also a gunfag.
>>64309815Impeccable taste.
>>64309771
>>64309789this. carrying in the first place is what wins. secondarily keep in my that comfortable carrying all the time is way better than getting something that is not comfortable to carry to the point you don't carry all the time.
>>64309771Appendix is only fine if your gun has a heavy or long as fuck initial pull combined with a hammer or striker control device for feedback that makes it impossible to holster obstruction your dick offPeople who shove a glock down the front are idiots. Talk about how if you're not perfect you shouldnt have a gun period, le maximum splits, le fast and the dead, and so and so operators use it all you want, but even monkeys fall out of trees, and even someone delta would get glock leg eventually if every holster was separated from the world by a beltline, a loose shirt, and a jacket
>>64309771I use IWB hip carry right for the pistol and IWB hip carry left for the spare mags.
>>64309771Do not back carry. Putting a hard object near your spine and/or sciatic nerve is a massive pointless risk. People who do this are one bad fall away from serious harm. Any other carry method is way better.>>64309801>normies won't look for printingNormies don't look for printing at all. Only cops and gun enthusiasts do.>>64309815based.
>>64309771>open carry an unloaded gun at 4 o'clock>conceal carry a loaded gun appendix>become immortalized on /k/ when Jamal tries to yoink your open carry gun at the gas station and rob you with it
>>64309801>can flare your hand out on the draw like an old timey detectivethis is the only reason why you do it.
>>64309771hip carry is my choice, its more comfortable than appendix carry, and theres less risk of your gun getting nabbed with your back turned away from someone (has happened many times on video)on the side your arm is just there blocking someone from that, or atleast makes it harder for them
>>64310842you're doing it wrong
>>64309815The real patrician way to carry instead of ghetto brained OP
>>64309771None, the chad way is to carry either a full sized hammer-fired metal-frame DA/SA or a nice full-size .357 Revolver in a vertical leather shoulder rig.
>>64311142based
>>64309771I call it FOP, or front of penis, because I'm gay and retarded. Its like appendix but instead further over to the other side. As a righty your barrel/slide would be mostly in line with your left inguinal area instead of your right like it would be with appendix. Your grip is going to the right though like it would with standard appendix. You'll want to slide your belt buckle off center a bit to avoid it being in the way or adding to girth. I do this because while I may be a lot of things but fat isn't one of them. That area has the most "drape" from your shirt and conceals the grip the best.
>>64311179>full-size .357 Revolver>vertical leather shoulder rigExcuse me, while I whip this out.
>>64309815this would be my choice. it seems like the best combination of most natural, easiest to hide, and least likely to harm you in the event of a holstered misfire. though I suppose it necessitates living somewhere that you can comfortably get away with wearing a blazer or an overcoat if you want to conceal it
>>64309771Guitar Carry
>>64311282briefcase?
>>64311282that sort of thing made more sense in the 2000s and 2010s but now its a bit melodramatic. jan 6th and covid made being pro-gun a fairly normal thing.
>>64311406Gonna need a name
>>64309771unironically, Mexicanit shows:You life doesn't revolve around carrying a gun, because you aren't some underling.But you can carry a gun well, without anything extra and aren't limited to any particular gun.
>>64309815>>64311277there's a buddy cop show from the 80's/90s that made it fairly obvious that a Hawaiian shirt works too.
>>64311529ghost in the shell, not sure which film. the art style is unmistakable.
>>64311282I prefer tennis racket cover for my med length guns.Guitar case invites theft, and you might get your windows broken just looking for drugs. Tennis was a thing in the 1980s, with idiots with expensive rackets who always ready with excuse of why they loose, but not so much anymore.
>>64309771Back carry you can't use any retention methods if someone gun grabs you. Do not fucking do it, there's videos of noids spotting one and they rob them of their gun. Not a damn thing you can do about it, you can't retain it back there. Even wearing it on the back of your hip is wrong. Handguns are made to be worn on the hip. Front carry can at least be retained but damn i don't want a gun pointed at my dick when Indians are making them these days.
>>64311570Thanks anon
>>64309771appendix carry is probably best for me but, I'm paranoid about shooting my dick off
>>64309771>nobody has posted the best way to carry yetSad!
>>64312003i throw my gun in my fagbag when i ride my bike but idk if i'd want this specifically. it really screams "i have a gun in here."
>>64312019Depends how you dress. Wear it out with cargo pants, boots, a faggy Grunt Style T, and some Oakleys? Absolutely. Dress in cargo shorts, Hey Dudes, a floral button up and some aviators, noone suspects a thing. Especially if you have a separate pocket for snacks.
>>64311577>I prefer tennis racket cover for my med length guns.Don't all the old boomers play that pickle ball thing now? How big are those bags? Seems like thatd blend in pretty good in lots of upscale places and heard that sport is supposed to be super cheap.
>>64309771Fanny Pack Carry. Go full Dad mode.
m1 garand slung over the shoulderm1911 on my hipice cold lemonade in my handmaximum comfy in the summer.
>>64312148This applies to all forms of carry too, never dress like youre carrying a gun. Think like a gangbanger for a second, if I bust in to the local 7/11 with my Hi Point and Sawn off Mossberg, the dude in the grunt style tshirt is getting iced first, because he's the most likely to have a gun on him.Some jeans, converse, a band tshirt and a button down will never go wrong
>>64311570It's the first three minutes of the 1995 film. >>64311529Anon, if you like Ghost in the Shell, I also recommend Patlabor 2. GitS and Patlabor are about the only military anime things I've seen that aren't made by complete faggots or people who learned everything about war from magazines and pop media.The series that GitS spawned were kinda OK. Not irredeemable, but definitely a 'you gotta turn your brain off a little bit to enjoy it' kind of thing.
>>64309771Hip carry. Appendix makes it uncomforyable to sit, and back carry is how you get your gun snatched.
>>64309789Pretty much this, if it's for every day carry it's imo most important that it's comfortable so you actually do carry your pistol on you at all times.
>>64311529>he doesnt know gunkino
>>64309771LCP in the back pocket. My life changed when I switched from appendix carry to pocket carry. It’s like having an extra wallet, but the wallet shoots people.
>>64313461>back pocket>t.dead in the streets after tyrone shoots you with your own shitty little peashooter
>>64313912Anyone with an ounce of situational awareness can avoid pick pockets. Also I don’t live near Joggers and fent foes. Also also appendix carry is 200% easier to steal.
>>64309771vertical shoulder holster is the most comfy way, but you have to pick what works best for your context
>>64309771With open carry being legal, dropleg is the most patrician choice.>>64309801Also this. Especially with a coat and when driving. Easy to have your spare mags on the other side to balance it out. I hardly ever carry a spare mag because it's so cumbersome.
>>64311267Nice, I have the same one for my 6" Python
>>64309771All three
>>64311282>four pistols>20" ar with a cheap red dot and flush-fit mag>no spare magazines for anything What are you even doing
>>64312730>think like a gangbangerA) they don'tb) i can't get that fucked up on drugs, they do random testing at work
>>64309818>>64310984>Normies don't look for printing at all. Only cops and gun enthusiasts do.Yeah printing is overstated as a concern and particularly in the last 15 years or so since basically every human on the entire planet now carries a big ass solid rectangle on them 24/7.Actually come to think of it I'm almost a little surprised I haven't seen that get experimented more in terms of CC: not trying to have no printing at all, but rather having a rounded rectangle kydex shape on the side so that the gun looks like a phone beneath clothes. So rather than "concealed carry" more like "camouflaged carry", anyone can see you have something but nobody gives a second thought to it being a gun. That might open up some design space to carry bigger stuff more comfortably while still accomplishing the basic job of "randos don't realize it and make a stink".
>>64313963
>>64314560that seems impractically low desu

That might open up some design space to carry bigger stuff more comfortably while still accomplishing the basic job of "randos don't realize it and make a stink".Many companies have tried; remember that company that was making folding Glocks so you'd only print a rectangle. Their product was reliable, but they went out of business because no one cared.
>>64309815what do you do when it's hot and humid out?
>>64312003>>64312360takes too long to retrieve the gun
>>64309802Mini mouse is impressed
>>64315195I don't carry so I'm talking out of my ass, but it seems practical to me. It's just low enough so that you can have you arms relaxed at you sides without having your holster feeling like it's in the way; it's out of the way enough so that you can do all your normal shit without it feeling in the way. You just need to drop you shoulder an inch or two and you can instantly draw.
>>64315743Kill 'em all
>>64311529Big oof
>>64311282Why am I seeing so many c-mores on here this week? I think they're awesome but didn't think anybody else still used them.
>>64311282Classless. Violin carry is the patrician choice.
>>64309771Yo, homey.
>>64309815Literal retard way to carry. Ridiculously long time to fire and having to reach across your body makes you incredibly easy not just to spot but to empty a mag into as you're trying to reach for it. This holster is for LARPer faggots.
>>64316426this scene sucksthe other guy had his hand on his gun literally the entire time and never pulls it out
>>64316394>Excuse me for a moment mr. Robberman while i assemble my rifle and load it...Great choice for a would be rooftop assassin.
gotta make sure you have enough to distribute to all your friends and family
>>64309815
>>64310984How often do you fall on your back?
>>64318153Probably more often than I use a gun defensively. How about you?
>>64318159Never for both.
>>64315753I can do it in under 2 seconds. You just have a brain issue, thus a skill issue.
>>64318153Hello, I'm the guy you asked. It hasn't happened in about a decade (I was traversing a rainforest, and I slipped in the mud). That being said, it only has to happen once (while carrying something hard on your lower back) for your spine or sciatic nerve to get damaged. A few years ago there was an anecdote of a police officer who had his handcuffs there when he was pushed and landed on them, losing the ability to move his legs.
>>64309771Anyone else here just purse carry? If you wear a crossbody bag or live in white places, then you don't have to worry about it getting snatched.
>>64312019>>64312148I worked security at a plant and while not a lot of people knew this the guys with 'first aid' fanny packs where actually the armed guards (they did have some very basic first aid stuff in there too).
>>64309789nice kicks anon
>>64318131hnnnng
>>64318634>carrying in a way that says, "I'm not going to be able to pull if I'm in danger.
11 o clock while right handed with a mag at 1 o clock. tucks in real nice. plus a lil popper in the right hip pocket. like stupid small 22
>>64317447>never pulls it out
>>64318131
>>64318131>>64320224>Not the HK51K
>>64309801the downfall of crossdraw is faggot ranges and competitions banning it because of pearl clutching about "muh 180 rule"
>>64320220go be retarded somewhere else
>>64309771Those all look unbelievably fucking uncomfortable. No wonder these guys are so irritable. >Captcha: DAWNJ
