Anyone tried the Deep Concealment! Compresson Concealment Shirt?

It was in the back of the Blue Press this month.

I've looked at these several times but have never tried one or know of anyone that has.

My concern is how the firearm is going to bounce around, especially over time as the elastic stretches.

If you have 1.5 pounds of gun hanging in an elastic loop, it is going to have to be pulled really tight to keep it stable. Then I wonder about it gouging into my ribs.

Just my concerns with no experience with this product.

I do like the idea for some situations.

I would think it would get sweaty.

A couple things come to mind.
1. Most shooters I see would look ridiculous in a T-shirt as tight as that one would have to be and to hold a pistol in place, it would have to be TIGHT. I mean come on guys, some of you really need to watch the intake. (Off topic) :tiphat:

2. $70.00 for a T-Shirt or underwear is a bit steep, even if it is a holster. One would have to have several unless laundry every night appeals.

No thanks. I'll stick to my Tucker.

When I posed for the photo shoot the t-shirt really didn't feel that tight once it was on.But the shorts did.

The shirts work and are not that uncomfortable. I have not used the brand mentioned but I do have the Kramer Confidant. It is not really a compression shirt but it is good to have it snug to support the weight of the pistol.

I don't use it every day. But when deep concealment is needed, it works very well. It is slow to access but it does work

If your options are to leave it in the truck or wear the deep concealment, I'll wear the Confidant.

I only paid $25 on ebay for mine....new return. However Kramer sells them for $50 here:

If this is something you might use I strongly recommend getting a snug fit and the full length shirt rather than the 3/4 length...however the 3/4 length is on sale for only $33 now.

If I wore one, it would be more like taping a handgun to a ham. :shock:

Yes it is. And why is it we 'hams' tend to end up the the same shape as a ham? :lol:

Probably too much time spent sitting in front of the radio.
