How do you conceal an XDM in a business suit?
Just purchased an XDM and am currently experimenting with rigs for it. Unfortunately, I wear a suit and tie to work everyday. I have a Crossbreed Supertuck for it, but the gun is still noticeable even with the shirt tucked in. it doesn't print, but the bulge is visible. Anyone have any tips? I am considering some kind of shoulder rig to wear underneath my shirt. Anyone have any experience with wearing one of these with a business suit? Thanks in advance.

so the xd prints even with the jacket on? i would stay away from a shoulder rig, because if you ever have to take your jacket off, then you will have to take the rig off as well at least with the supertuck you will be able keep it at all times |

I take it by your screen name that you live in Florida...you don't ever ditch the jacket during the day? If so, a shoulder rig is going to present a problem for you.
Personally, I think you are going to have a rough time hiding that gun with a tucked in shirt in Florida. I think the best option at concealing an XDM in a business suit is to get a J-frame and carry it in your pocket |

What about those shirts with the pocket built in under the button up. Somebody did a thorough review on this site a while back.

Steer clear of the shoulder holster. Get a really good quality IWB along the lines of a Milt Sparks VMII, TT Gunleather, HBE gunleather. They do an excellent job concealing. If you have a non-descript bulge, most people will assume it is a cell phone, PDA, etc.
