My wife is 5 feet tall and weighs 100 pounds soaking wet (size 0 petite). She wants to conceal carry as I do. However, she does not want to carry inside the waist on a belt like I do with my Crossbreed because she never wears a belt. She doesn't want to carry in her purse (smart girl). She wants to carry around her ankle. Also, she has this imaginative idea of carrying it high on the back of her shoulder where you would have to reach behind your neck to carry it (like you were scratching your shoulder blade). I think ankle carrying is a horrible idea. I showed her the smart carry, which she didn't care for. I've shown her cornered cat, and it didn't help any. Any ideas?

Why do you oppose ankle carry?

Barring any type of belt carry, the only viable method of carry other than "off body" (fanny pack, ect...) would be ankle carry. Although it is not the quickest to access, it is probably the most concealable method of carry, and with te wide range of ankle holsters available, it can be a very comfortable way to carry. As with any method of carry, practice is neccessary to become proficient in accessing your weapon, and ankle carry is no exception.
