Ultra-concealable firearms

Ok, now that I can fund a new gun, I have a problem with carrying one with my "new" dress code at work. I work in the health field and am visible to the patients, but I wear dockers & a polo so I can't hide a gun in my scrubs or under a lab coat.

Given the above, what would you carry in this situation & where?

Thanks, familywgn
 
Dockers I would go with a S&W642 or 640 in a pocket holster, scrubs same gun in a belly band. I'm not a big fan of the belly bands, but my try one in this case.
 
Kel Tec P-3AT. You could just about hide one under your tongue if need be. :p

Ok, they're not quite that concealable but almost.
 
I'd say go with the AT as well, only THROUGHLY function test before you carry it!! That means at least 200 rounds FLAWLESSLY!! This is after the break in period!! I say this as one who has been a member of the Kel-Tec P3AT beta test brigade!! :eek:

Otherwise, I'd go with the P32 loaded with hardball!!! ;)
 
Dont!!!

I used to work in a health care facility or two (28 years in total), and if you got caught carrying, you'd be out on your ass. Are you willing to risk that, maybe your pension, and some jail time? Just don't do it. That's what the security guards are there for.
 
Kel-tec in your front pants pocket.

Get a good holster, but not a big fat one that defeats the purpose of carrying a Kel-tec.
 
Glock 26/27/33/28/29/30 + IWB Holster (e.g. Milt Sparks)

In my lawfirm I often work with pants and a shirt, jacket hanging somewhere. In the setup described in the title, nobody could tell I am carrying.
With the subcompact Glocks you have great small guns in 9mm/40/45/380/10mm or .357...

any IWB holster would do. Milt Sparks has an excellent reputation...

Nothing conceals better or is easier to carry than a Kel-Tec P3AT or P32. I carry a P3AT 100% of the time in my front pocket in a DeSantis Nemisis holster.
 
+1 to what Skeeter 1 said! Every Hosptial I ever worked at in 32 years always had a "no-firearm" protocol. If you read the policies and procedure manual for the institution I work for now , even off-duty LEO's are supposed to check their wepon with security , go about their busniess and retrieve it right before they leave....That being said , I had inadvertently had brought my 640-1 S&W to work one day. Not wanting to leave it in the car , I packed it in my work bag and locked the bag in a closet in my department.That day , of all days we had a bomb scare. Security, State Police as well as the local boys. I wasent realy concerned until I saw the DOGS :eek: !!! Wont do that again . P.S. If you absolutly have too , an ankle holster will work.:D
 
Try one of these,

http://www.kramerleather.com/products.cfm?categoryID=21

I have both and both work well. I just got the 5.11 a little while ago and havent used it but once, but it was actually a little more comfortable and secure than the Kramer. If you go with the Kramer, get it one size smaller than you normally wear. I've carried a Combat Commander and a double reload in the Kramer under a dress shirt with no troubles, a pair of P230's is more comfortable though.
 
S&W 3913 with an IWB holster. Light, slim, accurate, good capacity. Load it with Ranger 127 grain, or Hydra-shok. You'll be well armed, and the only one to know it. Regards 18DAI.
 
I dress in dockers and polo at work, and carry a p-11 kel-tec in a front pocket. Try to stay with dark colours, and buy the pleated front dockers. Make sure to use a good pocket holster, a leather or kydex one will keep the pistol upright and it needs to have a wide bottom to hold it in place. the nylon "uncle mikes" one will not retain properly, and will print. I have carried this way for about a year and not had any problems. The p-11 does get heavy after a few hours, but 11 rounds of 9mm makes it worth the effort.
 
This is to second what Skeeter1 wrote. In NC, one of the places where one cannot carry a firearm, concealed or otherwise, is in a medical care facility. Don't jeopardize your CCW or even your ability to own a firearm by having one there. willr

Here in Ohio, it is illegal even if you have a ccw or are an off-duty LEO to carry a weapon into any sort of health care facility. Not in my hospital, or my mom's retirement apartment.

The first one I worked at had a "for-real" police department on staff, armed and ready to go. The second one is in the process of getting their own police department, and the city police department is just down the road.

When I was working in the ER, there was ALWAYS a security officer on duty. I never felt the need to carry there. Who are you going to shoot? An 80-year-old lady with congestive heart failure? Yeah, once in a while we'd get a junky in there, but the security officer was always there to keep it under control, and could radio for backup.

There's absolutely no reason to risk carrying in any healthcare facility.
 
I'm pretty amazed at some of these responses. How do you know that it's illegal for him to carry? Why would you care? The gentleman obviously feels a need to be armed. "Healthcare facility" can mean pharmacy, or lots of other things.
Famlywgn- get a Keltec P32 or P3AT, put it in your pocket, and go about your business.

You know a fanny pack would not look out of ordinary in your dress and profession. A nice little HK P200SK or Sig p-239 would fit nicely. ;) I bought a P3AT for my wife (pharmacy) for a purse gun to replace her .357 Ladysmith (which she hated , said too heavy) only to find it really and truly is junk. Before Flames let me say people have different ideas of junk.....But in this case we should all agree.
 
If your idea of junk is a gun that is small, flat, lightweight, reliable, durable, reasonably powerful, and inexpensive, then I agree the Keltec is junk.
