Thought if anyone could help the wifey it would be the wonderful ladies of arfcom. So if you don't mind I have a couple questions for her.

1. She has just gotten her CCW and is looking at different methods of carry. It seems she has her eyes set on carrying her Sig P320 compact and is wondering what IWB holsters any of you ladies are using that conceal well on a small frame (5'4" and 130)? As well as any other methods of carry that might work for her?

2. We ordered her some lvl 4 plates from grey ghost but can't seem to find a plate carrier that sizes down small enough to sit high enough on her chest. Have any of you found any plate carriers that fit a smaller frame? She isn't too worried about the soft backers, not being very "busty'.

Any help or advice is appreciated.

I'm not a female, but my buddies wife has a SKD Pig Plate Carrier which she finds very comfortable.  (She has small boobies too)

I don't have a small frame, but I carry my Shield AIWB with the Kydex holster from the Well Armed Woman website. There are tons of reviews and it seems to work for women as a whole. Make sure she gets a good belt. I like the ones from the Flashbang Holster Company (Looper Law Enforcement). I have the black patent leather dress belt also sold on the Well Armed Woman website. They also make more western-styled ones if that floats her boat.

She just has to get a good holster and belt and experiment to find the sweet spot to carry. I carry about 1:30-2.

Interested in answers.

I'm currently eyeballing a First Spear or ESSTAC set up.

About how tall is she? The problem we keep having is that the shoulder straps can't be sized up short enough.

To show what I mean here is a picture. She is very small framed and it seems we need to find a smaller overall carrier as far as the material on the front and back not just the straps, for the plate to sit at the right height.

5'9" 130lb female, I carry my 9mm shield every day using a stealth gear onyx holster (carry in 5:00 position) on a belt man belt.

when I am not in jeans I carry using a pair of the undertech undercover spandex holsters, works great as well.
