Fat Man's help: shoulder rig

Miscellaneous
1

Hello fellow members and the USCCA, is there anything in the info vault about… overweight Men and shoulder rigs and dressing for it? Winter dressing is no probs.

I’ve got health issues and this year has been difficult and weight loss impossible but tomorrow I’m going on protein shakes with intermittent fasting. 2 new probs happened this year which have made any exercise not an option for now.

Plus my new 1911 10mm is so right for my grip it feels natural and I have a dandy vertical shoulder holster which happily doubles as suspenders plus getting to the weapon is great while driving, any videos or links would be appreciated. TY :peace_symbol:

I have a shoulder rig for a large revolver and only wore it once.

As an old fat man, I know your pain. I’m less than a month shy of 74, 5’ 11", and 300 lbs.

Up until a week ago I shunned AIWB as not practical. I am now a convert.

Went to an all leather IWB from Relentless for my XDS Mod 2 in .45. I liked it so much that I bought a Relentless model for my GI sized 1911.

Much easier to conceal than the OWB options and much more comfortable than the shoulder rig.
