442 if I am being lazy on a quick trip. I honestly don't remember the last time I carried it though. Belts and holsters have gotten so good there is almost no point in not carrying a full size gun.

Yep. I carry an LCP in my front pocket everywhere I go around the house. If I'm going to town or anywhere, I add my 1911 in a IWB holster on my right hip at 4 o'clock.
|
|
I'll do a G43 sometimes. Low crime, low risk area. If I'm headed into someplace more wild and wooly I upgrade.
Edit: DeSantis pocket holster. |

Today P938 in Nemesis pocket holster with two reloads in other pocket.
It goes back and forth with my P365. Pat |
|
LCP Max everyday I’m in the office. Outside of work though I carry a P365XL
|

Pocket carry a P-32 in the winter. G26 at 2 o'clock in the summer.
Yes, one could carry a bigger gun concealed by winter closing. But drawing it would be difficult, with a zipped jacket and a couple of layers of clothing underneath. I can always access my pocket fast. |
|
I do. Sometimes an LCP; sometimes a snub .38 revolver.
What I found out is that most blue jeans have tiny front pockets. Seems that the more they cost, the smaller they are. (I boycott Levi everything.) I find Wrangler blue jeans have the largest front pockets. YMMV |

When I felt the need to carry a firearm, in Indiana I pocket carried a KelTec P3THC 380.
Revolvers are too fat. I kept a Glock 17 with RMR in my vehicle in a center console mounted holster. I have no desire to carry now living here as carrying a firearm would be as useful as wearing a winter coat. |
|
For years it was my Kel tec 3AT, but I switched over to a LCP max when they came out and haven't looked back.
It's amazing how much more "shootable" the small amount of thickness and grip length make it, but it is a joy to shoot and the better sights enable me to make shots at further distances than I ever thought I would with a bellygun. Pocket holster is a Vedder pocket locker curved version . |

Quoted: My Dad had a pistol in his pocket everyday of my life since before I can remember. When he passed I slipped a pistol in his pocket so he was buried with one too. "If I got my pants on" is when he carried. Mostly .25 auto or occasionally .32 revolver. View Quote Damn, that's solid Tiger! |

Quoted: Who else? 642, LCR, LCP, etc Carry in my gym shorts, not gonna shoot my dick off with an appendix carry p320. https://www.ar15.com/media/mediaFiles/430926/IMG_4278-3177486.jpg View Quote |

I started with a Kel-Tec P3AT and moved up to a Kahr CW380 for pocket carry and bicycling.
I got a P365XL as my regular carry pistol but find myself pocket carrying my Kahr more often. I really like the DeSantis Superfly pocket holster. The Kahr is a sweet shooting little gun. It really works well for me. |
|
I can't get away with carrying my J frame in my pocket. Too thick and heavy. My LCP pretty much gets forgotten about when carrying. I prefer my PM9 but a tad heavy. I pocket carry my P365 at lunch when at work and it's ridiculous.

Here to see if anything cool or new pops up as far as pocket carry.
I really like my lil G42. |
|
I'm looking for a pocket carry. I generally carry a G19 AIWB every day.
About once a week I have a circumstance where it doesn't work with my clothing so I'm looking for a pocket carry. Thinking I'll get a P365 since I already have an XL. Also, I'll have nice big pockets for it so I think it'll be fine. I used to have a P938 and really liked it but the 365 is about the same size and carries more rounds, seems more practical. |
|
S&W Bodyguard .380, no laser, in a leather pocket holster (maybe Bulldog?). I’m upgrading to the LCP Max soon.
|
|
Yup. Florida is shorts and t-shirt weather most of the year so I usually pocket carry one of these when wearing shorts.
S&W 438 Ruger LCP Sig 290RS Have also pocket carried a G26 and Walther P99C. Not as comfortable as the above three. Might have to consider some other options now, since micro compacts are the same size as the above and have higher capacity. |

Quoted: I pocket carried a LCP for years until I stumbled onto the Beretta Pico, it's smaller, and better in every way. It's a shame they discontinued it. Pro tip: get a decent pocket holster, it makes drawing so much easier. https://www.ar15.com/media/mediaFiles/348465/IMG_2552_jpeg-3177559.JPG View Quote I love my Pico with the light in the frame as well. What holster is that? I've been using a cheap ass Uncle Mike's for pocket carry. It works but drawing it produces the holster as well as the pistol. LOL |

I alternate between a model 37, 642 or an LCP Max.......looking for a Seecamp now to add to the stable

I carried a Kahr PM9 in a Don Hume pocket holster for years, maybe over a decade. Last few years it's a Shield Plus in an OWB holster.
|

LCP stands for lint covered pistol. Also gets a healthy dose of sawdust, dirt, and whatever other shit finds a way into my pocket. I just blow it off with the air compressor about every other day and a bi-monthly cleaning. Damn thing is pretty reliable for the life it lives.

Need to practice that wave more.

On the few occasions I can't carry my preferred 1911 a little Smith no lock 442 in a Simply Rugged pocket Protector does the job just fine.
|

G42 in the now discontinued Blue Force Gear pocket rig is my go to.
I have owned a G43, I hated it, but it pocket carried nicely too. I have a G43X and 48, but those ride in "real holsters" not a pocket rig. I carried various J frames in the past. I found the G26/33 to be a little thicc for pocket use. Pocket carried a pocket brick aka Kahr MK9 for a while too. Beretta 21A is really tiny and pocket carries great in the cheap Uncle Mikes holster too. |
|
I've been carrying a Kahr P380 in the front pocket for a couple years now. Sometimes a Kahr PM9 but that one is just a tad big for a front pocket with the +1 magazine installed.
|

I pocket carry a j-frame fairly regularly as well as a seecamp, for the five minute walk to the mailbox or the five minute drive to the corner store when I just don’t feel like scrapping anything heavier on but I could just never get used to having a pocket holster so I just drop the gun in the pocket bareback :-).

I’ve been into pocket guns lately. I really want a seecamp but man are they pricey.

Had a great conversation with him and am really looking forward to getting the holster. I'll post up a review once I get it in and use it for a little while. @Strela |

In the past it was called an "ugly" holster and it won't win any beauty contests. But, it works well for me. |

BUT . . . https://cdn.handgunhero.com/chart/577446/ruger-lcp-vs-ruger-lcr-up.png View Quote I pocket carry an LCR .327, but have went with an LCP II .22 when I couldn't carry anything larger. My SP101 .357 starts to feel cumbersome after a few hours of pocket carry. |
