 Pics of a PPS in an IWB holster?

Hey guys... I'm thinking about picking up a PPS due to how slim it is. I usually wear tshirts and cargo shorts (Smart Carry in the mean time), and I was wondering if a PPS with an IWB holster would be a good combination for me. So far, all the pictures I've been able to google up involve tucked shirts. Any chance any of y'all have pictures/videos that show a person concealing a PPS wearing a tshirt?

Here's some crappy pics. The gun is in a leather IWB that I purchased off ebay, called a Gun Glove, I don't recommend it. I'm in Phoenix, so lightweight clothing is a must in the summer. I am wearing a very lightweight, slim-fitting American Apparel t-shirt, and I am very confident that nobody would notice I am carrying. If I were wearing any lighter weight shirt you'd probably be able to see through it. I even have the 8-round mag in it, so it would be even less conspicuous with the 7- or 6-rounder. It DOES conceal very well, theres no doubt about that.

I am 6'2", 195 lbs, 33" waist

I use a Kholster and a 5.11 TDU belt, and it works just the same. I am 6'2", 180lbs. I usually carry the flush-fitting mag in the gun.

Longer, darker t-shirts seem to hide the best.

Wow, I guess having a black tshirt on makes all the difference. (Aren't heavier folks supposed to stick to darker colors to look thinner?) I was just really concerned because it gets to be reallllly windy here in Oklahoma to the point where your shirt is pressed flat against your body. Any chance one of y'all can take a picture and pull the shirt against the gun? I've been told that as long as it's not clearly obvious that it's a handgun, I should be fine.

I was going to say someone was telling you a story but I just double checked the order form and it isn't listed any more. Weird. I've got one in my drawer right now and there was at least one other guy who had one.

ETA: found my camera, but the batteries need to charge.

no pics (maybe tomorrow), but i carry my PPS 9mm in a Comp-tac MTAC under T-shirt with shorts all summer. No one is the wiser. It sits 3 o'clock 90% of the time and occasionally at 6 o'clock.

I have a Crossbreed for my PPS and, although it is one homely looking holster, is the most comfortable I have had. It even beats a Milt Sparks Executive Companion that I waited months for. I think the Crossbreed is the best thing going in this department.

Just picked up a Crossbreed for my PPS. Horsehide and combat cut. Works great for this gun.

If I could change anything it would be the cant. It's about right now. But I have the forward facing end of the holster all the way down and the other end all the way up. Just wish the kydex was canted about five more degrees.

Wow, I'm the slowest person on earth.







Sorry for the delay, which was long enough that they stopped making them.

Are you talking about the minituck? The one in the pic above looks like a supertuck
I just ordered and recieved a Crossbreed supertuck in cowhide three weeks ago. Awesome BTW.

It is a minituck. Look at the bottom of the holster. They offered them for the PPS a little while back, but then apparently changed their minds.

I'll throw in my vote for a minotaur holster.

I know the crossbreeds are very well-liked by many, but I liked the idea of having less leather. I'm not of large stature, so I don't particularly need the coverage on my body.
Also, it comes naturally with the "combat cut" - an upcharge I don't have to pay.



I backed it with the moleskin comp-tac sells and it works great.





It's good when I have to actually tuck a shirt in (rarely these days)
Still, my preferred holster is leather...

Much more comfortable..

Here is a video I made recently shooting outdoors. It shows my IWB holster I use. I purchased it at a Scheels, its actually designed for a small framed revolver but it fits it perfectly. Best of all I only paid 10 bucks for it, I think its made by uncle mikes.
