Afternoon imarangemaster, I do understand the sentiment, and it goes well beyond just sentiment. Even though I have acquired two 9UCs, one new and one used, I still refer my first BT380 as OWB EDC for the reasons you listed above. By wearing it at 4 o'clock, it fits in the area just below my ribcage and is very difficult to detect. I have always carried one in the tube and eight in the mag until recently. I have gotten the mags broken in well enough that it's no longer a pain to load that 9th round. I've ordered a Fobus/Bersa two mag holder, so now I will alway have 3 mags with me.
