When you Carry do you carry an extra magazine?
abbafandr:
With the PF9 I always carry a spare. With the 17, don't worry about quite so much.

I normally wear carpenter pants so it fit perfectly in one of the little pockets on my right leg. It was also an interesting experiment in human perception because it really wasn't very hidden, but nobody ever saw it or if they did they didn't know what it was.

It is true what you say about human perception. I used to worry about printing and felt that everyone around probably knew I was armed. But I have come to realize that most people are in their own little world, and are not noticing what others around them are doing. I think I notice others more than they notice me. I see things like Sneaky Pete holsters, vests, man bags, packpacks etc and I wonder what is being carried.
I too wear carpenter jeans a lot and sometimes slip a spare mag down the long tool pockets above the knee.

I have had days where I realized, after I got home and looked in the mirror, that I was printing...BAD! Never got a funny look or question. People are just not that aware.

Only time anyone ever noticed on me was someone I know, who knows I carry and also is a CHP holder. And I was wearing a fairly snug fitting tshirt.

(They ride pretty low, and that helps.)
Some people (Fly?) really like the Dale Fricke Joab horizontal mag pouches. I run out of waist space with the sideways carry, and in my case, they actually print more than vertical carry, however it significantly varies by body type and mode of dress.

I find the orientation wording a little alien. Which one do I want to carry on my left side and access with my left hand?
