Guys and gals of ODT:
I have always carried IWB at 5:30 or so, in the small of the back. I prefer this method primarily because my spinal erectors are fairly protrusive and create a nice pocket for my CCW pistol (either Bersa Thunder .380 CC or Sig P250 Subcompact). I have never really felt that this method of carry was less comfortable than any other IWB carry position, so I'm not looking for replies telling me about the discomfort of sitting in a car seat or office chair, etc., with an SOB carry position; I know it is a comfortable method for me.
What I'm really trying to find out is whether anyone has had any problems with this kind of carry. If you have had your pistol taken from you, experienced an accidental discharge while drawing from SOB, or fallen on your pistol and actually received a traumatic spine injury, I would greatly appreciate hearing from you, and hearing your suggestions for alternate carry positions. My concern, however, is that any other carry position will print like crazy because I have very, very little bodyfat, and I tend to wear clothes that are more fitted to my body than those commonly worn by most CCW folks.
Thoughts from those with SOB carry experience are appreciated!
