Rhett explains it here better than I can. I'm about his size and I find the G19 doable in deep carry, but it's on the ragged edge for me.

You might consider picking up a mule tape leg leash from Levo and maybe some of their other stuff. It's pretty reasonably priced and if you don't end up using it they make good presents for people you like, but not that much.

I had the SME title under my name when that was a thing. That was Todd's wish, not mine.
I still interact when I can and occasionally post some substantive content.
40+ weeks a year on the road makes it hard to be consistent.
I try and keep my narcissism and cuntiness in check.:D
You are not an SME because someone gave you that title. You are an SME because you spent the time learning and then repeatedly demonstrated your skill and knowledge.
I am glad you jumped into this thread because you are an example of something else: In the 20+ years I have interacted with you online, you have always been humble and trying to learn. That continued willingness to learn is how you ended up at the top of your game.
I try to teach my kids that the best people in any field are the ones who understand that they do not know everything and are always trying to learn more.
One thing to keep in mind about Rhett's methods...in addition to insane levels of commitment to practice is that the man has a badonk.
Junk in the trunk. Booty. A tush.
Which supports his britches.
Lacking both his commitment and his ass, his ideas just don't work for me.
Plus, I (very wisely, I might add) carry an emergency calorie supply conveniently located at my beltline.
While I agree with you about Rhett's insane level of commitment to practice, I do think that his ideas can work for multiple body types. As I mentioned, I'm built not too dissimilar to Rhett having stood beside him and taken his class on this topic. That said, also in the class were several other folks who looked nothing like me in stature or build who were able to apply the principles of deep carry and make it work for them. Not suggesting that it's for everyone, but I wouldn't let differences in body type be the driver of the decision to investigate it further.
After carrying an XMacro for month's I figured I'll be going back to one of my XL' s at times with warm weather and thinner shirts, since I hadn't shot one in a while, I pulled one out of the safe after dinner last night and shot 4 HST's, a 7yd failure drill with 2 in a B8 10 ring and one in the center of a 3x5, then one in the center of a 10" plate @ 25 in 3.28. Certainly not up there in PF standards but, after months of strong side shoulder / neck PT, I'm satisfied and comfortable with the XL in a JM 2.5 as being capable.
