    Hello everyone. Been around the site for a few months but recently purchased a gun. Could definitely use some guidance towards conceal carry or general day to day care of your pistol. Excited to be a part of this group.

    Welcome to INGO.

    Assuming you have your LTCH, get a good, heavy duty belt made for carrying a pistol. I have one from the Belt Man. Holsters and carry style are personal preference ... I carry outside the waistband in a Kramer holster. I always wear 2 shirts, a tucked t-shirt and a looser shirt over the top. 2 spare mags on the other side.

    But whatever style you choose, a quality belt and a quality holster make a huge difference.

    Welcome Luka93A, welcome to INGO and the world of carrying a handgun. As I've said before carrying a handgun is a lifestyle. Are you going by the Post Office? Dropping off recyclable items in a bin that happens to be on school property? Is your church a school or a licensed day care? Crossing a State line? All things you now have to consider. Learn the law, find out what you need to know and learn all you can.

    Welcome.

    I'm going to assume you bought a handgun if you're referring to CCing. What did you get? If it's a common model you'll get plenty of recommendations on holsters.

    The advice about a good belt is key too. Keeping the gun where you want it goes a long way. And it is a journey. Your carry habits will evolve over time as you learn what you like, what works.
