We're talking a single stack too). There's a reason people carry with crossdraws and IWBs, while wearing leisure suits that can accomodate something like a hunk of metal. I'm no carry master, nor can I carry myself, but I understand the basics, and a full size hi cap is more or less out of the question.

Still, I saw this youtube video where this guy taped himself concealing a Glock under a sweater, and as he bent over to put groceries in the car, the gun kept getting exposed. Luckily, no one noticed, so hiding in plain sight works, sorta. Wouldn't count on it though.
I usually wear a light jacket in summer and a heavy one in winter, and both hide the holster I wear on my hip. So it works decent for me. You can see a little bit of the holster sticking out of the light jacker, but not enough for anyone to care. Also, I've though about getting a small-of-the-back holster that cants the gun horizontally, like the holster the Punisher used. It hid his .45 pretty well.
