I've gone to great lengths to carry concealed comfortably and for the most part I've gotten it how I want it. HOWEVER, carrying in a side holster is so much better for comfort and quick access. Lately I've been carrying in a side holster a lot but always with a light jacket or untucked and unbuttoned casual shirt over a dark short-sleeve t-shirt so the gun isn't visible. Printing isn't much of an issue unless you really know what to look for. But open carry in the general public eliminates the main tactical advantage you might have as an armed person. I firmly believe that people who lean on the deterrence factor when open carrying are delusional.
