Asking for suggestions on carrying with an ostomy

[Greg7580]

I use a shoulder holster and do find it kind of restrictive.

Now I found it is more comfortable to carry my P238 in a pocket of my cargo pants. I use an Uncle Mike holster.

Here are the pants I wear.

I like the zippered Pocket.

I haven't had any issue like a colostomy but I use these with my gun belt to help with the weight distribution both carrying concealed and when working security in uniform. https://www.perrysuspenders.com/
As a side note, if anyone ever asks what's that under your shirt when I carry concealed I just say its' my colostomy bag. Shuts them the f*** up! Good luck.

I was thinking in the same direction, but the one that @minininjer helped develop. Maybe she can pay the link?

I’m guessing you mean post the link? It’s the same company, same guy, that link will take you to the site. Just a different option than the original for smaller bodied folks.

Light weight gun, inside the waist band, small of the back. This will work.

SoB sucks as soon as you try to sit in your car or a wooden chair in a restaurant. Tried it many years ago with an actual SoB holster, I didn’t last a week with it it was so uncomfortable.

Perfect, and thanks for catching my cellphone typo

I can't help but laugh about the contrast between this thread, where OP asked for advice and is receiving sincere and helpful answers and the infamous "skinny jeans" thread which went sideways and stayed that way.

Recommendations for ways to conceal carry in men’s skinny jeans.

it seems like those with an ostomy often have to have their belt in a rather specific location so as to prevent interfering with the stoma. as mentioned above there are some protective sleeves that can be worn over the stoma although i can only imagine between such device and an IWB rig it would be a lot of material around the belt.

for someone with an ostomy pocket carry would seem to be a good option. i'm aware from all the keyboard commandos that i will never be a true operator if pocket carrying and i'm at peace with this unfortunate truth. for those of you carrying pocket it's worth trying a kydex alabama holster. i was a fan of the remora until i found the alabama.
