I've been toying with the idea of buying a PDP F-series too. I've done a bit of research on the pistol and have similar CC concerns during hot summer months.
If your body is having a hard time concealing your PDP-C 4", then I suspect you will have similar issues with the F-series while trying to conceal it during Arizona summer temps.
I lived in Buckeye for three years and carried a PPS40 which is only 0.2" shorter than the PDP-F, but it is 0.44" thinner than the fat-boy F-series according to Walther specs.
Your body size and shape are important, but so is the clothing you chose to wear.
That said, I can easily conceal a thicker, heavier S&W model 4053 during the hot, humid N.C. summers between a tucked-in gray Hanes X-Temp tank top and loose gray or dark colored Lands End Super T t-shirt with gun-belted cargo pants. The X-Temp is worn to absorb sweat and the loose fitting Super T allows some venting but not printing.
I suspect I would have to buy new pants with a one-inch larger waist size or trim an inch off my waistline to comfortably accommodate an F-series. I might have to experiment with different carry positions, and also consider buying a two-clip adjustable holster from MTR Custom Leather so I can change the cant if the grip prints too much. I like leather.
I'm looking forward to hearing from those that do CC the F-series, and want to know what their IWB carry position is too.
