I can't legally use an ankle holster in GA. Waist, shoulder, and purse or attache case are the only carries legally allowed. Police are allowed to use the ankle holsters, and I actually have one for my Baby Browning .25 Auto . . . but I don't use it.

. . . talk about a mouse gun! I'm not sure you'd be able to stop a mouse, let alone a rat.

Well, again, without delving into specifics which could be brought up again later, I used the ankle holster when I probably should not have. I also used one which held it in the small of the back, and so long as you have some manner of loose covering on (sports coat, sweater, etc.) and are not moving about too vigorously the weapon hides quite well. It being a .45 made a spot of difficulty now and again, but there were numerous times when I was ever so grateful to have a backup piece there.

Speaking of which -have I stressed enough that it was a hideout piece? The Colt was for more obvious work, but the Star was **ALWAYS** hidden away for when the main piece was not available to assist, and it came in handy more times than I care to mention!

You mention waist carry; perhaps looking up a custom fitter to make up a less-bulky holster would help. Again, and I must be specific here so as to not fall afoul of the law, I admit candidly that I carried when I probably should not have -not that I am advising you to do the same, mind, and of course *winces* I do not do that now. Rather more fond of breathing, even in a jail cell for protecting Myself and those I love, than becoming nothing more than a memory, I believed. Not that I am advising you to break the law *cough* but everyone needs to evaluate their priorities at times.

I mean, at one time it was the law to swear allegiance to the english king, and look where we are now.
