Concealment options

[edelweiss]

I think I can come up with a working briefcase for transport, but I was also thinking about a shoulder holster. Does anyone have ANY experience with them? Are they even reasonably comfortable for a shift of 8-12 hours? How do they balance with the two spare mags on the off side? Ive seen one that has a pistol holster on the weak side. I suppose maybe my first question should have been are they still being made?

Decades ago I had a M10 and the DeSantis (Ithink?) shoulder holster. It was well built and comfortable enough for occasional wear, but in actual use it required a fairly heavy coat to conceal. The holster was designed so the MAC would be fired while still atached. This ment that it had to hang low enough from your shoulder to grasp it and swing it up, and that ment you had to wear a long coat as well. Of course a short mag had to be carried in the gun to keep it reasonably concealed.

Are there any other options? Whats still being made?

Step lightly as those decades past have changed considerably here in MD. Since the Assault pistol ban in June of 94 an Uzi pistol, no matter who the maker, is a No No here so you’re stuck with a carbine. It must have a barrel of at least 16” and an overall length of 26” or more, unless you SBR it and pay the tax. Then to make things even more complicated the law says “a concealed SBR or SB shotgun is a handgun subject to handgun laws”. Anyway since you have a CCW permit here, (as you now carry) and that takes an act of God and the you’re first born child to get why risk having it revoked over some cleverly worded law designed to keep honest folks from owning their weapon of choice. But to answer your question on sholder rigg's some are out there for mini and micro Uzi's. The one you brought up for the Mac will also fit a micro Uzi. here is the link.

Sorry I should have been more clear. This is TOTAL Fantacy!. Im still in the buying mode and will probably buy a SBR BUT as to carrying it no way! Even in the SBR mode its still just a BIG heavy pistol thingy with a stock. So NO I WONT BE TOTING IT TO THE STORE!!!

On the other hand I would like to have the briefcase and other accessories like the shoulder holster. Then PERHAPS just PERHAPS it might be O P E N L Y used at the range "just to say I did..."

Again not for real but errrrrrrr there is that odd chance the Zombies might start again.....:roflmao

Well that makes it easy. In fantasy land it's not too long or too heavy. You can wear it all day long in total comfort and a t-shirt will totally conceal it. But of course you don't need to conceal it with zombies on the loose. :roflmao

Enacted in June of 94 basically it list what the state has deemed ASSUALT pistol’s, (what a friggin joke) and cannot be brought, sold/traded, or shipped to Maryland. Only grandfathered if owned prior to the ban and you registered it before June of 94. It’s even more morose then that the state has what they call “The Gun Roaster Board” made up of a bunch of narrow minded twits who approve the make and model of handguns which are legal to sell and own here. Hell here even AR’s are considered somewhat restricted, meaning you have a waiting period just like with a handgun. I’ll cut/paste the lists of banned and approved guns at the end of this. This state ranks in the top 5 for gun control nuts we have them wall to wall. Here we have a mag restriction no more than 20 rounds, you can’t ship, buy, sell, or trade higher capacity ones. But you can drive say in my case 15min to PA and buy all you want, bring them back and use them legally. This state needs a total governmental overhaul.
