Tightest to body pancake for...

Beretta 84

What do you think is the tightest fitting, closest to body OWB holster for concealed carry?

IMO, different body shapes may accommodate different but would like some opinions

I've been finding that if you take a IWB type holster and wear it on the outside of the pants UNDER your belt, the belt can pull it in real tight, and is the flatest OWB I've found. Takes a cover garment of course.

A good belt is critical.

Very good point.

The belt should be a sturdy belt that won't twist or deform easily. The loops for the holster should be sized to fit the belt to keep the play to a minimum.

The belt is more important than the holster, to a degree, most of us who have been around already know that....the question is; what is a good OWB holster that can be mounted closest or tightest to the body?

That's a good point.
