Does anyone have problems with having their carry gun get printed more with the apron on?  I carry IWB at 3 o'clock, and last night at lodge (first time i've gone in a long time) the apron seems to almost print around the grip.  Anyone have any solutions?  The only thing i can think of is pocket carry instead, but i prefer my Sig P229 to the Ruger LCP.  Any other brothers who have issues, comments or advice?

I would say baggier close but no matter what I wear I am skinny and everything prints on me unless I carry 1 o'clock with my Glock 27 IWB.  If I carry my 1911 yeah it shows bad but I conceal it best I can.  Baggier close just make me look stupid so I wear normal close and let it print and I just try to keep attention off that area.  If you start bringing attention to the fact you have a firearm others will pay attention.

shoulder holster or cross draw or pocket carry..

EXCELLENT Excuse to buy a BOND Derringer, gives you enough gun to get to the car and get a real gun, it is where your primary weapon is anyways (shotgun, AR, AK, Levergun)and that little "big" derringer is available in most calibers....

If you're a Free Mason why not just ask your brothers to change the laws since you rule the world anyway?

But while you're waiting on that, depending on your holster shifting it a little to say 2, 4, or 5 o'clock might help.

Wear your apron on the side. Your a Master Mason you can wear it anyway you want.

smart carry might be the best in this case, i usally appendix carry but use the smart carry when I dont want to print under for any reason.

Technically we aren't supposed to carry anything offensive or defensive into an open lodge.  Having said that.  I use an ankle holster at work and in Lodge...some might say ankle holsters are a joke but if you are doing a lot of sitting they can/are just about as easy to get to as an iwb holster.  Not to mention in both atmospheres if you are paying attention we should have some warning that shit is going to get weird.

To be honest, the Lodge is the only place I never worry about needing my weapon.  

But since half of my Lodge carries, I don't worry if I'm printing.
