In the world of concealed carry there are several options of where and how to safely tote your handgun. One of the most effective and widely used, but not often talked about, is the groin carry.
When carrying a concealed handgun, the most popular spot in on the strong side at the 3, 4, 5 o’clock position for right-handed shooters or 7, 8, 9 position for left-handed shooters. This can however leave a disernable print where the outline of the firearm is easily seen, forcing the carrier to wear oversized shirts to obscure the pistol. Wearing the pistol in the 11, 12, 1 o’clock region, which is on or just to one side or the other of your belt buckle, allows a larger cavity to hide the weapon inside.

About laststandonzombieisland
Let me introduce myself. I am a bit of a conflict junkie. I am fascinated by war and warfare, assassination, personal protection and weaponry ranging from spud guns and flame throwers to thermonuclear bombs and soviet-trained Ebola monkeys. In short, if it’s violent or a tool to create violence it is kind of my thing.
I have written a few hundred articles on the dry encyclopedia side for such websites as History Times, Firearms Talk.com, GUNS.com, Suite 101 (where I am the contracted Feature Writer for Military History) and Combat Forums; as well as for print publications like England Expects, and Strike First Strike Fast. Several magazines such as Sea Classics, Military Historian and Collector, Mississippi Sportsman and Warship International have carried my pieces. Additionally I am on staff as a naval consultant and writer for Eye Spy Intelligence Magazine.
Currently I am working on several book projects, including a section in the upcoming Mississippi Encyclopedia (to be published by Ole Miss this summer), an alternative history novel about the US-German War of 1916, and a biography of Bennett Doty. My first novel, about the coming zombie apocalypse was released this Spring by Necro Publications and can be found at Amazon.com.
In my day job I am a contractor for the US federal government in what could best be described as the ‘Force Protection’ field. In this I am a certified Firearms, and less-than-lethal combat instructor.
