I’d suggest maybe you put “woman” or “female” in the title (you should be able to edit) to attract some more answers, I think everyone here who has replied is male 😆

Without a belt, what is holding the holster in place?

I am guessing when you say the “stock” prints, you mean the grip? With a belt and a dedicated AIWB holster those usually come with a “claw” or “wing” that helps push the grip back towards the body by leveraging against the belt. If you _don’t_ have a belt, then the firearm needs to be placed in such a way that it fits against your natural curves, nooks, crannies and that will likely _not_ be along your waistline.

I have a friend who uses a belly band (I dont know the brand but I can find out) and IIRC the firearm is approximately 2o’clock but way higher than the waistline. If she places the firearm along the waistline the grip pokes out and also gets “tip out” where the top of the firearm leans vertical or slightly forward while the body tapers backwards (those of us with “tactical tummies” suffer the same).

> Hello everyone, I have recently convinced several of my female family members to get their CCWs and one thing I am concerned about is their holster options for CC. They could use a purse, however, that would introduce a number of variables, i.e. purse theft, ease of access, trigger protection (against NDs), malfunctions if shot while within the purse, etc. They could use an on-body soft holster option such as a belly band, but this includes a high chance of ND due to the lack of rigid trigger…

> Hi @pumpkin, yep, lots of folks on here use them. I’m a fan of the corset type or tank type my granddaughter likes cancan (she uses the “classic” there are lots of good ones though. Just look for something that will secure the firearm, and gives some trigger protection. here’s a couple of threads with some ideas, ask if you see anything you want more details on!

> @Maestro, forgive my question I’ve known Darcy’s in both genders… you’re female? My granddaughter carries in a Can Can Concealment Classic hip band… she’s 5’3 and 105, quite slim. she carries about 4:30 o’clock. She’s not a baggy-clothing kinda gal so what she’s found is that wearing that belt so her leggings cover 3/4 of it, and then letting her tank or Tshirt runch up over the top of her leggings does an extremely good job of concealing her Glock G43. she also has a minimalist kydex holster…

> Hello!! I am a new gun owner, very excited, getting my CC license in September. I live in PA. I have a question regarding CC for my SW 9 mm EZ which is a large gun I think to CC. Any suggestions on how to carry this on my person? It is quite heavy and on the larger side but I feel good about it as being my first weapon and after I get more conversant and comfortable then I can move onto something smaller. Any ideas would be highly appreciated and have a great weeknd.
