good evening! so the shoulder rig of choice all depends on what you will be carrying and what you will be wearing. more often than not i carry my sig 226, which is one hell of a wide gun. even with a thick flannel on, when i carry from the shoulder with a horizontal rig i still print. the thinner the gun, the more likely you will be able to carry horizontally unnoticed. if im just at the shop or working out in the yard it is perfect, but when it comes to conceal-ability i prefer a vertical leather rig, either tagua or galco. another key thing to mention is tie down straps. if you are broad shouldered tie downs can really aid in keeping the holster as close to the body as possible, masking a print or bulge buy using your body's natural profile. unfortunately, much like many expensive things in the firearm world, it is all about trial and error and finding what works best for your needs during different situations.
please keep in mind (if you are new to carrying from the shoulder) that it takes a completely different mindset when it comes to drawing and re-holstering. you have to remember that your gun will be on the opposite side of your dominant hand, so be mindful of your muzzle discipline when others are in your general area. dont want to be THAT GUY who sweeps everyone in the room.
if you have any more questions feel free to call the shop, or post them on the forum!
