This technique is crucial for anyone looking to carry a firearm discreetly.

Frequently Asked Questions

What causes a firearm to 'print' through clothing?

A firearm 'prints' when its shape is visible through clothing. This is primarily caused by the grip of the firearm protruding outwards. Even smaller guns can print if the grip isn't properly managed against the body.

How can holster features improve firearm concealment?

Holsters with features like a 'wing,' 'claw,' or 'camming bar' actively work to rotate the firearm's grip inward towards your body. This leverage against your belt tucks the grip closer, significantly reducing or eliminating printing.

What is a 'camming bar' on a holster?

A 'camming bar' is a specific type of holster attachment designed to use the pressure from your belt to pivot the firearm's grip inward. This mechanical advantage helps to conceal the firearm more effectively by keeping it flush against your body.

Are there specific firearm models that are easier to conceal?

Generally, firearms with shorter grips, like the Glock 26, are easier to conceal than those with longer grips or added accessories like magwells, such as a Glock 34. However, the right holster with concealment features can greatly improve the carry of any firearm.
