trapped, the Shield I missed was $438 (40 S&W)
Since this is for your wife I'm guessing here but I would imagine she will predominantly carry it in her purse, correct?
If you were carrying it, would you carry it IWB? I'm curious because I don't plan to pocket carry and I hate the idea of an ankle holster or compression shirt, so that pretty much leaves IWB.
Do you think it would be comfortable and wouldn't print? I would imagine it would print fairly easily with a very light t-shirt or something similar. I'm still trying to get my mind around what width starts to make IWB less practical.
A single stack would be narrow enough but with a double stack (which I would honestly prefer) I think there's some real gray area.
