    I have had good luck with that type of holster, but the roughness kinda bothered me on a long walk I just got back from, so I'm asking foxX to let me trade for a "FoxX Trap". You'll find that holster on their link I posted before.

    Still way big, stiff and clunky compared to the PJ. JMHO. YMMV.
    Very interesting...

      I don't understand getting those big, wide, double clip holsters for such a small, light gun as these polymer Kahrs for concealed carry. The PJ IWB holster weighs less than an ounce, yet it is sturdy, stable, has good retention and is so comfortable that it and the gun become imperceptible after just a few minutes.

And it stays that comfortable all day every day. No 8" of leather scraping your body as you bend over, sit down or stand up. So small. So easy to conceal. Case closed, IMO. (I prefer the over the belt clip as pictured.)
        I would probably agree with if you if I was thinner. Unfortunately I've let myself go pretty bad the past few years and have some love handles right now. Two job changes, and a child being born, and a ton of overtime randomly isn't exactly too friendly to the eating and workout schedule that most bodybuilders follow. Once I get back to eating correctly, and working out again I could probably go down to one of the smaller IWB holsters.

          I am a relatively big guy: 6'2 250lbs. A lot of that is middle aged spread through the middle. I wear a PJ IWB with a CM9 every day. Days when I am just in the office I wear a casual shirt untucked. Days when I have to look human, I wear a shirt tucked in. In neither case can the gun be spotted.
          It is very comfortable and nearly un-noticable.
          A good belt helps a lot, but honestly this thing is so thin you don't even feel it after 10 minutes wearing it.

          That notch in the rail is supposed to be there

          "Laws that forbid the carrying of arms disarm only those who are neither inclined nor determined to commit crimes. Such laws make things worse for the assaulted and better for the assailants; they serve rather to encourage than to prevent homicides, for an unarmed man may be attacked with greater confidence than an armed man."
          --Thomas Jefferson (1764).

            If you prefer leather over kydex for IWB carry, the double clip holsters can be very comfortable and (IMO) stay in place better than most single clip, leather holsters.
            In leather, the double clip style also makes for a thinner profile holster.

            Choices are a good thing

                Me, too. I am 5'9" 188 lbs with a nice middle aged spread. That little PJ in the sweet spot behind my hip hides real well and is PERFECTLY comfortable! I have to reach back there and feel the gun to assure myself it is still there! No kidding!
