True. I've carried, off and on, for almost 40 years. Shoulder holsters
require some sort of over coat (not good in summer). Inside your belt,
against your spine is uncomfortable; just as carrying a weapon in your
back pocket makes sitting uncomfortable. These off duty weapons have
prevented me from going different places in airports; in government
buildings; and various locations that restrict (like going aboard a
carrier at a Military Day event).
I always carry a knife and I always carry a gun. I've settled for a Kahr
P380 (small .38).

It's small. I drop it (in a small holster) in my back (off hand) pocket of
my Levies and can sit without sitting on it. Nothing in the chamber;
probably bad idea, but safer; even though hard to jack one in. If I think
I would have to hurry, I'd just not use it. First three bullets are full
metal jacket; the last three are lead hollow point. It would have to be
one hell of a situation for me to draw and jack one in. You are fully
responsible if you shoot someone (as Zimmerman's finding out). It's just
always there. I've never needed it.
