Okay, I think I can start a thread that won't get locked or deleted . . .

Another gun thread!

I just received my CHL license (what they call a CCW permit here). So, I have my shiny new S&W 442 .38SPL, my shiny new CHL card - and no way to actually carry the gun.

I spent some hours searching on different ways of CCW carry, what kind of holster, what make of holster, how you have to dress, if you have to buy all new pants and belts - geez, if I can't make more sense of this, I'll end up leaving the gun at home all the time.

I mean, the 442 is a small gun, I thought it would ride in my front pocket, but in the front pocket of my jeans it makes me look overly happy to see you.

Any tips? Those of you with CCWs, how do you carry (where and how) and what do you wear to hide it?
