Personally no, but I've had a couple friends who have. Great concealment, but VERY slow to access.

Any feedback on what they were carrying? I'm looking to use it w/ glock 19.

One was a full-sized 1911 and the other was a Glock 27.

I own two and RARELY use them. I'll definitely second what Chezuki said. I've concealed both the SR9c and the full-size SR9 no problem. Unless you wear a button down, it's pretty much not worth it because it's just too slow. I will also add that it will make you VERY VERY hot. That shirt doesn't breath at all.

I posted a review of it a few years back. Here's the link.

I own two now, and I like them for carrying smaller pistols, but if I'm carrying a full-size weapon, I'd prefer other carry options.

I have one, I don't carry a pistol with it so I'm no help, works great to carry my LVAD batteries

I use mine under a button down shirt, frequently when I go to church during the cooler months. It is slow, but can be discreet.

Thanks, great review!!

I wear mine quite a bit. Yesterday I rocked my Colt Combat Elite. They work great when your wearing a button down shirt. My main two problems with them are they tend to run small in size. If you wear a large shirt, I would buy a XL. And with a full size gun, especially the 1911's the collar on the shirt will hang down lower then the other side due to the weight of the gun. When I had my XDs, it was perfect!!!

I have one. I think my glock 27 is too big. Everyone else is dead on. When you need discretion with a small pistol its great. But what you gain in discretion you lose ease of access.

Yeah the 1911 is definitely too heavy. With my "service" XD, it can work, but I feel like that's really the upper limit on weight. Maybe for the smaller models, it wouldn't be as heavy. The XD-S should be no problem, since that's about the same as the Taurus PT740 that I usually carry in the 5.11 shirt.

I wear one while jogging. Works well for a TCP380 on one side and LTCH/car key/MP3 player on the other. And as others have mentioned, it can be worn under a button down shirt for discreet, albeit slow access, carry as well.
