There was some brief discussion about barrel size in another thread several days ago. Many people (myself included) will tell you that for most concealment situations, barrel length is not as important factor as other variables such as grip size. For most hip-carry situations (IWB or OWB), length is not a real issue. Reliability being more of an issue with shorter barrels, you might take a try on something longer before you buy and see how concealment works for you. You can take a look at the discussion here:
