BBB problem

[ccpacker]

Okay, have your fun. Make your jokes, but this is a real problem at least for me. It seems that the aging process is causing my butt to disappear. This means I have a BBB problem (my belly is bigger than my butt).

I have a nice horse hide IWB holster and a good gun belt. The holster is built like the Crossbreed or the White Hat supertuck. The only problem is that the weight of the gun causes my belt, holster and gun to start sliding down. If I don't hitch it up, it would literally pull my pants off. My wife just laughs at me because she has seen it happen around the house.

I am not a fat person. I am 6'2" and around 250#. my weight is distributed fairly evenly on my body. I tried carrying with a shoulder holster, but that 's not always good. A pocket carry would be the same weight problem, so there go the pants.

I am too old to care if you laugh, so when you quit, offer me some good carry suggestions.

Now if you were in Hollywood, they'd just transplant some of the front fat to the rear where it's needed.

Option is;

Try an Airweight Snubby.

Possibly a BELLYBAND with what you have.

Okay, I am obease. I have been packing for 35 years in uniform and another 15 OC and CC. The last 10 years OTJ I went to perry suspenders that was color coded to my uniform shirts. I had the most whiskers so they let me skate with it. I still wear them all the time, otherwise you have to pull your belt so tight it cuts off your blood and wind. The reason I say "Perry" brand is they have plastic buckles that doesnt tear up your wifes furniture or your truck seats like the metal snaps on other brands.

Do what I do..... Lose the belt and and invest in a good pair of suspenders. Just wear shirts that you don't have to tuck in and no one will even know.....

You occasionly WILL run into the problem of haveing your suspenders under your shirt and haveing to run for the bathroom. I always wear my suspenders over my shirt. You have to figure out whats best for you. If I OC, I do it in the boonies. If I CC I just carry a model 40 in my pants pocket. If I OC, a large gun belt is the ticket. Sometimes a pancake works well.

I have the same problem. I have found the best way to handle it is to not walk or stand. Sit or ride. Walking and standing is tiring and old people have enough problems without being tired. Larry

My tailor says that I have the body of a stump. Ankle carry work okay for me because I can still bend pretty well... when that stops working I guess it will be a shoulder rig like the ******* horizontal carry. Another thought would be a Belt "D" as in Sgt. Preston of the Mounties!

Great suggestion! This looks like a solution I can work with. Perrys look like they might work with a supertuck holster. Certainly, they will work with with an outer shirt. Thank you all responders.

Another vote for the Perry suspenders. I have the same problem as I'm built like Elmer Fudd. My wife claims that I'm like a catfish, all mouth and no butt.
