My Thoughts
Once again this year, the most preferred carry location for women is In The Waistband. This location offers excellent concealment and quick access to the gun in case of need. These benefits are not found in any other location, and that’s why most American concealed carriers, both women and men, choose this as their primary method of carry.
Carrying in a Concealed Carry Purse is also a popular method of concealed carry, offering the ultimate ease and comfort. However, this method sacrifices quick and easy access to the gun and creates the risk of unauthorized access by others. It’s important to consider these risks and commit to training specifically for the draw from the purse. We have a great article on The Concealed Carry Purse if you’re considering this option.
On The Waistband carry is also popular and provides both exceptional comfort and easy access. However, it requires a cover garment to hide the gun from view.
New to the list this year is Pocket Carry! We haven’t seen this method of carry represented in significant numbers before.
Other Popular Carry Locations With Women
Majority of women who carry underarm utilize a tank top or wrap holster.
Bra carry takes advantage of the “shelf” created by a woman’s bust, but requires special training and practice for a more complicated draw.
Ankle carry is comfortable but access to the gun in a hurry can be difficult due to its distance from the hands.
Thigh holsters are necessary when wearing dresses and skirts.
