    I think this is just common sense. If you're CCing, then you really wouldn't want to wear a shirt that says anything that screams "I'm carrying a gun!"

    I'm going to Florida for a vacation this year.

    I'm going to wear a shirt that says, "I'M CARRYING A GUN" since OC is illegal there.

    Common sense simply does not apply to me. :):

    I guess I'd consider myself "low profile." I don't really wear 2a shirts(just don't have many) and I like my shirts untucked whenever possible.

    I don't really work to conceal, but with what I wear I don't think it has ever been noticed.

    Saturday one of my best friends was with me pretty much the entire day...He helped me move a bunch of crap, went to my son's baseball game, went to the grocery store to get stuff to grill and ended up hanging out drinking beer all night(on me of course, since he helped me out)...When I went to unclip my holster from my belt he said, "ha, I always forget you have that thing on."

    Your CC isn't fooling anyone.

    Your PRO 2A or cop mustache gives it away. So do your servicemen/women shirts, stickers and don't tread on me tattoos.

    Also, you don't know it, but most of you smell like Hoppes.

    I wear bib overalls 99% of the time and it's easy to conceal in those.:D In warm weather I carry a compact 9mm in my front pocket with my hand in my pocket most of the time. If It is cool enough for a jacket or heavy shirt over the overalls I have 2 IWB holsters that clip right inn the sides where the overalls fasten with buttons. Nobody has ever said anything to me so the guns must not be too obvious. I have at least one on me unless I'm working.

    Rule to live by #3: Always keep a low profile.
    RTLB #4: Always maintain plausible deniability.

    I don't wear anything that has logo's or advertising on it.....unless I am compensated handsomely for wearing them!

    No, tacticool here. I just dress in carpenter jeans and button down shirts or t-shirts that are loose enough to reasonably conceal and be comfortable. I don't worry about printing or showing too much beyond that. Often my wife doesn't even know I'm carrying.

    I don't generally go places or do things where I would feel the need to deep conceal. I'm pretty boring.

    I dont usually dress around my gun. If its not going to work, I switch to the LCP, and go. Its pretty difficult to dress to the point I couldnt hide a small .380 somewhere on my person.
    As far as tacticool dress, I keep it to the minimum. The only thing that might be a clue is the Marine emblem that is on a few of my shirts.

    My wife always knew that I owned guns it toke her 8 year to know when I was carrying. My dress stays the same. Find what works for you.

    Just normal jeans and shirts for me. Wear my shirts a little loose and never had an issue with either IWB or OWB holsters.

    I carry every day at work. Where I work I wear blue jeans or khakis, and then wear tucked in or untucked dress/polo shirts. Carry my XD45 Compact in a Crossbreed Super Tuck and noone has ever noticed or asked about it.

    I like some of the tactical clothing just because it is functional, but then again so are a nice pair of jeans. I have a lot of shirts, hats, etc. that are some form of advertisement for a gun company, ammo, 2nd Amendment, NRA, etc., but I don't always wear them. I guess I don't give a crap what others think as long as I am within the parameters of the law.

    If you're OCing, then go as tactical as you want.

    Yep - summertime is cargo shorts, trail shoes and an untucked button down shirt, either hawaiian or hiker style. (Greyman)

    Or cargo shorts, trail shoes and a cool INDIANA ZOMBIE REPSONSE TEAM T-shirt or the like, tucked or untucked, and tacticool hat with the occasional OC. Given the car that I have, when people see me get out, they pretty well assume...

    (Note: when people see my IZRT shirt AND the badge/car/gun..I get some awesome looks!)

    Your CC isn't fooling anyone.

    Your PRO 2A or cop mustache gives it away. So do your servicemen/women shirts, stickers and don't tread on me tattoos.

    Says the man with the epic beard that screams "HIPPIE!" and should be dripping patchouli...:D
