A look at the pluses and minuses of off-body and on-body techniques
Like most men in law enforcement, I have little or no fashion sense.
My closet contains clothes in “earth tones” (brown, green, black and tan), along with the occasional blue (jeans) and white (T-shirts). I dress as if I'm preparing for some sort of tactical event, where the ability to camouflage myself is the key to survival.

A 115-pound female isn’t going to be able to conceal an M1911A1 on her person, regardless of whether it is carried inside or outside the waistband. However, she can generally hide a small- or medium-frame gun with little or no difficulty. From a fashion standpoint, most women aren’t going to want to wear extra-large clothing to cover up their piece.
Women do have a distinct advantage, though, in terms of additional options for concealed carry.
They can opt for off-body carry. This involves the use of purses, handbags and other accessories to carry a handgun.

OFF-BODY CARRY HAS both advantages and disadvantages. Here are a few:
Advantages of off-body carry Ability to carry a larger weapon:
If a suppressor-equipped HK USP .45 SOCOM is your preferred carry weapon, you can carry it in a purse. For more practical applications, though, large-frame handguns such as a SIG P226 or .45-caliber Glock 21 can also easily be carried in this manner. This means more firepower.

I’m sure ANTIFA and others of the same ilk will find much that they can use in this article. Especially since it is being propagated beyond its original publication. Blessings of the internet continue to be bestowed by “well-meaning” folks upon those on the left who will use this info to commit mayhem against us, but are also butt lazy. How many female FReepers would need a publication to show them how to accessorize concealed carry?
