Glock 19 or Shield IWB at about 2:30-3:00 under either an untucked shirt or fleece/sweatshirt works best for me. I'm 6' and 230lbs.
How do you conceal carry your weapon?

I live in Colorado so I can always wear an untucked over shirt without looking over dressed for the weather.
I carry either an M&P9 or 9C in a Galco concealable pancake holster and 2 reloads with a Wilderness Tactical instructor belt with no problems

Strong-side OWB slightly behind the hip. I typically wear a graphic T-shirt with a loose cover-up shirt over it, unbuttoned. It looks perfectly normal (here) displays whatever image I have on the t-shirt (non gun related unless I am going to the range), covers up the weapon very well and gives very fast access.

I choose IWB for most situations with untucked polo and t-shirt.

Small covered holster hangs on my belt. Could be a camera holster or phone holster.

I carry a Glock 27 in a Galco Triton IWB holster. I'm left handed and I carry it at about the 8 O'clock position. In the hotter months I wear a t-shirt or light shirt over the gun. In the colder months I wear a sports coat or jacket over the gun. I'm 6-3 and about 205.

I carry either a S&W 40c or a Beretta PX-4 Sub-Compact 9mm
... I put it on when I dress in the morning and remove the holster with pistol in side of it and lay it on the bedside table when I take my pants off at night ..
During the summer IWB either at 1 or 5 with a good leather holster by Garrett Industries (the leather lined GX model).. wearing a t-shirt or a shirt worn out side of pants ..
during the winter the same or if it its very cold and a heavy coat is the garment of choice when going outside its at 3 with a Wright Leather Works Cobra holster worn at 3 either IWB or OWB as its dual carry .. with a shirt worn tucked into pants or left outside of pants ..
Our CCL law in Illinois say " concealed or mostly concealed " but not open carried .. so if we print we are not subjected to an arrest for anyone seeing it ..
I have never been approached by any one asking if I was carrying .. But my 12 year old Granddaughter has told me several times (4) when we have been shopping that that man has a gun PaPa .. 2 of those times they were wearing a Sneaky Pete .. she had seen the adverts in one of my gun magazines .. the other two times the gun had been flashed because of clothing the person was wearing .. She is very observant ..
But to me I always make sure I am not printing and my wife will tell me not to wear that shirt because your printing .. so she is a big help in that regard .. She told me the other night when we were out that she is finally good with me carrying .. not sure what made her change her mind !!

Same here
I too am a tall skinny senior (71) I second the Galco Pocket Holster. Works great with my .38 S&W 442 Pro. I do carry other ways depending on my attire, but the Galco works well for me.

New Barsony Burgundy Leather Shoulder Holster for Mini-Pocket 22 25 .380 Pistols (Misc.)
Oddly enough, shoulder holsters for the popular S&W Bodyguard 380 are few and far between. The Bodyguard fits perfectly in this holster, and the holster fits nicely after a few adjustments...
I have used shoulder holster rigs since the late 1980's and always found them to be the single best concealment system when wearing a sport jacket, suit or cardigan sweater. Nothing tugging at your slacks, no considerations when buying new slacks, IWB allowance etc. A shoulder rig supports your weapon from the strongest part of you body, and is exceptionally easy to reach and draw from.
It seems sub compact frames have been overlooked by the big makers where shoulder holsters are concerned, at least in the case of the Bodyguard. I'm told they feel it is easily pocketable, and it is, which is a fine method of concealment, but not as comfortable or as quick as a shoulder rig.
If you're new to concealment, or just never tried a shoulder rig, this is a pretty nice product for a very nice price. i'd say give Barsony a try.
As for barsony, c'mon guys, youtube is very easy to use and your shoulder holsters would be greatly helped by a few simple videos on proper adjustment!
This holster exceeded my expectations for quality.
