View Full Version : Wife carry?
Was curious how many folks s/o actually carry? And when they do is it a typical iwb or does that not work for a lot of women and its all purse or flash bangs?
Ordered myself an alien great holster and not needing a second went ahead and ordered the discounted second one for my wife. Whether she ends up using it i don't know.
My gf likes the remora holster

Mine carries in her pocket, or pocketbook. Holster for range and over the road travel. For those who say . Well it takes time to get it out of the pocketbook or purse. They have to get through the 4" ken onion AND a late (very late) 50's post menopausal female, first. Only the lowest denominator of skel is gonna want to tangle with those odds.

My wife carries purse or pocket mostly, occasionally shoulder holster. Belt holster pretty much only at the range.

Wife uses a remora holster when she does carry, which is not as often as I'd like.
1st wife - British, Greenpeace, vegetarian, PETA pacifist - never shot a gun. Thinks they are scary and unnecessary.
2nd - Country girl from Fredericksburg, TX - carried a Sig 225 in a Kramer horsehide paddle holster - put it in the face of a carjacker once. Went on to work for the FBI.
3rd - California girl, liked to shoot pistols at the range, never carried. Figured God would protect her.
4th - Colorado girl, worked for the PD. Owns two carry pistols, but usually only kept them holstered in the glove box, or on the nightstand. Rarely carried a G19 in a Fobus paddle holster.
5th - TBD
Wife carry?
I'm single so I don't have one to carry !!!

Wife - "Why would I carry? That is one of the reasons I have you. I keep you close to me and you watch out for me. You do want to watch out for me and take care of me don't you?"
Me - "Yes dear."
What does my wife carry? Me. [Flower]
Be safe.

Wife carry, not yet. Surprisingly she is following through with applying for the ccw permit. I doubt she'll carry much, but if she does it will be in the shoulder bag/purse situation.

Yes, this. And if that fails, she carries an LCP in her purse.
However, with her P22 with 10 CCI stingers on the bedrail, she said "I ALSO need a shotgun by my side of the bed". Obliged.
I was in a Dental Office yesterday where we got into a "firearm" related discussion, and it turned out that pretty much the whole office was packing.

That actually looks pretty good (Yes, the holster too). Only problem I see with that is the POS Diamondback pistol. I bought one and sold it within a week. Fastest I've ever recycled a gun.
I would be concerned about comfort here. Comfort is generally what dictates carrying for most people, and it looks like you'd have to wear that pretty tightly around the waist. It would also mean that if your midsection looks like the one in the picture, you won't be wearing any more super tight jeans.
To contribute to the OP's question, Mrs. HB does not carry, but she keeps a gun close around the house. She fully supports me carrying 24/7, but she lacks the motivation and interest to do it herself. It's partially a familiarity problem, and partially a comfort problem. With little HoneyBadgers running around, I feel even more motivated to carry, but it's hard to find training opportunities and get range time. On top of that, she simply doesn't enjoy recreational shooting the same way I do. <-- That's probably the biggest factor in the equation.

My wife is finally applying for her permit (appt first week of January) after taking her class a couple of years ago. The motivations were several: she recently changed jobs to on that results in her driving home around midnight, through some less than confidence inspiring areas, the San Bernardino incident, my encouragement, and my offer to cover her costs. She most likely will not carry when she's with me, but she will when she's alone, most likely in a purse with a dedicated gun compartment.
My wife can't hit the broad side of a barn. Doesn't shoot, doesn't like to shoot, and definitely would never consider carrying. Guess that makes her my responsibility to protect.

They're surprisingly comfortable- the elastic is very thick, but not scratchy.
As far as tight pants are concerned, it depends on the size of the gun. There are three sizes for this particular CC holster. You can wear it either inside or outside of the pants; wear a loose tunic or shirt, and the gun and belt is concealed.

Wife carries a Taurus Curve.
Small enough and light enough she actually carries it all the time, even at home: just clips it on her skirt and she is good to go.
I don't envision her attempting a shot beyond 4 yds anyway, she does not practice nearly enough...

Mrs. HB is very tiny. She typically wears small or X-small clothing. I think I need a more philosophical approach if I ever want her to start carrying. Wardrobe is a relatively minor detail when deciding to carry a gun with you daily and if an individual really wants to carry, they will make the lesser factors (like wardrobe) work for them.

Mrs. HD carries either an XDM, sp101, or a full size 1911 (she is 6' tall). IWB, OWB or purse carry. She has been carrying less often of late citing the weight as an issue. So she is looking at some different compacts for her bday so she will have something lighter to carry.
The Mrs carries a Sig p238 or 938 in a IWB holster.

If she's tiny- and I seem to recall you telling me she is VERY active and works out a lot- she may want to check the other options they have available. Comfort is a major factor with these holsters. :)
As far as the philosophical approach goes, carrying concealed is chiefly about the mindset.

Ms. Slapps has her class done and will be doing the paper work once we return from PA for my dad's funeral. Not sure how she will carry or how often being a flight attendant. May need to devise some way for her to secure the 238 in the car. However she decides to carry I'm sure it will cost me plenty! Does Kate Spade make holsters?

Nope. MMJ prohibits her getting a CCW, or even purchasing a gun. She knows how to access and use any of my pistols or rifles if I am not around and she is a pretty darn good shot. She has the mindset to use it if threatened and will always put up a fight. She will not let anyone hurt her or her family right up until she is dead.

My wife carries. She has since before we got married.
A couple of points for you gentlemen trying to convince your wife to carry a gun.
1. Gun - If it's going to be her gun, let her pick it. Yes we all have our favorites. But *she* needs like love *her* gun. You don't. Let her buy the gun she likes.
2. Holster/method of carry - Unless your wife is an extreme outlier (or has a direct threat type of reason for wanting to carry) she won't carry if it's uncomfortable. Remember that giant box of holsters you ended up with after a couple of years of CCW because you kept trying to find THE answer? Expect to repeat the process. You *might* (tread carefully here) be able to guide some of the thought process, but she probably (hopefully?) has a very different body type than you do. What works for you won't necessarily work for her. Let her find her solutions to the problem. If you try to force it, the gun will likely stay in the safe.
3. Training - You may have noticed that there are a lot of people in the firearms community that are very emotionally invested in being a "gun-guy". They will trip over themselves to fill you in on how high-speed/low drag they are. This gets exponentially worse when a female is involved. It might be worth sending her to a women-only class with a reputable instructor once she's got the basics.
For us, this kept the ass-hattery she had to deal with down at her first class to a minimum. Attending a formal class also served to validate what I had been teaching her (again, tread carefully gentlemen). It seems that everything I had said on the range was all of a sudden legitimate once she heard it from a *real* instructor. ;)
Either way, training is a must. Going to the range and blasting a target at 7yds doesn't cut it.
4. Mindset - This is the most important aspect of being armed. It's a personal choice/journey and you can't force anyone to it. If your wife/GF/Etc just isn't into it, accept it and move on. There's no reason to have a gun if you *won't* use it. Pepper spray may be the better option for some people.

Damn good post!
I've got a better chance of playing Bingo with Jesus than I do of ever seeing my wife shoot a gun or even pick one up. Carry? She wouldn't carry one across the room. She tolerates my obsessions well though, but she's starting to think I have "enough". Ha!
But many years ago, a good friend and neighbor of her and her ex blew his brains out in front of his wife and kids, and my wife was the one who had to clean up the mess. So she has a legit excuse to not care for guns, at least she doesn't harp at me about mine.
I am a woman and I carry everywhere possible. My 1st choice is a kydex holster IWB. When I don't have any belt loops, I like Lethal Lace. It slows my draw but offers deep concealment, pretty amazing comfort and ability for a lot of movement. I saw the belly band you guys are talking about and it has some sticky stuff on the inside that might keep it from riding up. I tried my husband's belly band though and it was awful. It was too huge, stiff and rode up when I went jogging. I stopped wearing dresses mostly which is kind of sad and sometimes end up looking like a cross dresser because fashion was already too much work for me before I got a gun.
I like my instructor, who is not my husband, but my hubs isn't really a gun guy. I like the scenario based classes I have taken because they help me work through how to handle situations that could happen to me, and help me measure My skill. They seem to be tailored to police though, so I would like to see some scenarios that an actual woman may run into, but without the dumbed down effect that some of the "for women" stuff has. Maybe there are not enough women to fill this class? My hubs helps me practice this stuff sometimes though which is fun and helpful. This is a good, stiff belt that actually fits my small belt loops. It took me a while to find it. I also think it's pretty. http://www.511tactical.com/trainer-belt-1-12-wide.html
Hope this helps guys. Good luck getting your wives to carry. My friends aren't interested either.

Here is the link to Lethal Lace. I don't feel great about leg carry with my Shield. It is too heavy but maybe with a smaller gun.

Mi wife cannot "carry" because she has a MMJ card. That does not mean that there is not a firearm handy at any given moment, usually a J-frame Lady Smith. She is disabled and has one "good" eye but she can put all 5 rounds in your chest at 20 feet

My wife carries fairly religiously. She carries a Sig P238 and is able to conceal it pretty easily. Sometimes in a dedicated pocket in her purse but occasionally on her body. When she carries on her body she uses a small inside waistband "sticky" type of holster that uses compression to hold the firearm in. It's comfortable for her and seems fairly secure.

That brings up a good point MinuteMan. I am just stubborn about wearing my 9mm, but a .380 is so much easier to conceal. My husband has one and sometimes I think maybe I need one of those too. You could put one of those just about anywhere and maybe a lot of people would be more likely to consistently carry one of those?

Yeah, my carry pistol is a 9mm Shield which is comfortable enough for me. She has a smaller frame and wears tighter clothes so she opts for the smaller profile pistol. There is plenty of debate about .380 vs 9mm from a lethality standpoint but our research led us to the conclusion that the reality that all of the data tells us it's better to be armed than not and more often than not, simply being able to use the firearm proficiently outweighed the advantage of any particular cartridge.

A few rounds of any caliber will put a hurting on an assailant. Better to carry what one is comfortable with than not carry. The spouse go to is aG26, for everyday use when not having the 26, she has a beretta 21A ( tip ip) 22lr with 8 rds. Those 8 rounds of 22 CCI stinger can do some serious damage. While not the IMO perfect caliber for "stopping power' her ability and mindset more than make up for the mouse gun.
It comes down to comfort level and practice.

Jonesy, the CanCan belly bands are not stiff and scratchy like the typical IWB that you can buy at stores. The elastic is very soft and flexible, but can also hold a great deal of gun comfortably. The lie f sticky stuff inside puts me in mind of hot glue. It is flexible, but keeps the thing from riding up or worse yet, rolling.

You guys piqued my interest. Tried the hubby' s S&W Body Guard for leg carry. It works well, as long as I leave enough of the grip out for drawing. I can't believe how much smaller it is than my Shield. But...also had to try the Beretta PX4 Storm on my waistband. You can't beat having 35 rounds on your person. I wonder how long I could carry that before I tipped over? Hee hee. You know I am going to try it.

Wife typically carries purse or pocket. She is very small and a g42 on a belly band prints on her significantly. Printing is not really an issue- nobody cares in places we go.
Comfort is main reason hers ends up in a purse.
The one advantage to her carrying in a bag is that she is in the habit of staging the gun when entering any transitional space. Hand is gripped and ready when she exits car, and through many other situations where I could not have a grip established without drawing negative attention.
This video has great tips. They all work really well. I really like it when my husband goes shopping with me and tells me whether or not he can see my gun. Sometimes it is hard to tell on your own.

We talk about this at length all the time with students, especially if they are in class together.
Bad guys approaching at night will almost always go after the guy first. They will see him as the bigger threat.
If the woman is carrying as well.....doom on them!!
the only caveat to that is if you are going to carry in your purse, make sure its secured across your body, not dangling on your shoulder.

Sadly that video was taken down. I'm going to put my wife in a CC course in august, probably an all woman affair. I need to get my CC renewed as well...
She's been shooting a bersa thunder 380 I bought for her a very loong time ago. As a family we got into shooting this summer, ammo prices have dropped and my youngest is about to turn 7.
I bought her gun toten mama's cross body pouch that doesn't look like a carpet bag that should hopefully be an option for her. That's arriving tomorrow. I also bought one of those neoprene belly bands that we can try out as well. A shoulder holster might work for non summer months as she's always cold and wears fleece jackets in spring and fall.

My GF got her CCW and carries a Colt Commander 9mm on her waist all the time. We go shooting often and we enjoy it! My daughter took classes from me (NRA Instructor) and also carries all the time. She carries in her small purse but when she is teaching seminars she caries on her person.
My late wife got her certificate but she passed away before getting the CCW.
A family that prays and carries toghether... stays together! LOL
