PM9 Holster

[crasha51pan]

Received my PM9 yesterday, have started the search for a good CCW holster. Am leaning towards a IWB. Would like to hear your thoughts, is there "one" holster you favor above all others ? The one that you would never consider getting rid of. I am looking to carry under a T-shirt, with as little "print" as possible. The handgun was purchased for touring the western U.S on my bike this summer. Am looking for a starting point/good suggestions on the right holster....TIA !

I think for me, as a new PM9 owner, I see really two modes of carrying the
PM9. One would be Pocket Carry. For that and depending on what type of dress you need to be carrying in, it's hard to beat the DeSantis Nemesis.
However, I just received a premium leather pocket holster called the "PCS Tomahawk".....it's trully a work of art. I carried it for the first time today
wearing a suit to church. It's got a lot of promise after it finishes breaking in.




The second mode I see myself carrying the PM9 is IWB strong side.
The most versatile, functional and comfortable IWB on the market is the Comp-Tac M-Tac (imho). Like the Crossbreed Supertuck it has a very thin profile, and like the CB it spreads the load across a wide pancake like base.
However, I like the "finished" leather facing my body on the M-Tac and I also like the great range of adjustability for ride and cant on the M-Tac that you don't have with the CB. Another bonus of the M-Tac is the fact that you can swap out the kydex shells for different model guns and use the same base.
So for the "one" holster that's indispensable for me, would be the M-Tac.

Hope this helps,

Appreciate all the suggestions. Started to look at Milt Sparks VM 2, a 7/8 month wait (too long).

Jocko:
Sold my old 51 Pan in 2002, had that ride for over 20 years. A lot of history and a lot of blood ! They put her in a crate and shipped it to Japan, broke my heart. I now have a 2006 Road King Classic, this thing actually has suspension (a good thing for a old gray beard), I do miss that Pan though !

This is the one I use Comfort Carry it is a great holster for a very good price. I IWB. I wear it everyday all day long. It hides the weapon holds it secure is light and comfy. A very good deal!

You might want to give Craig Chadwick at Lightning Arms a call.
Lightning Arms Sports

They are a stocking dealer for Sparks and often have VMII's in stock of
the more popular models. If not already in inventory they probably have orders
already in the pipeline and can get you into a VMII a lot faster than ordering
from Sparks. The VMII is trully an awesome premium rig and extremely well made.

That said, if you are considering a traditional leather IWB, there's an up an coming holster maker named Adam Bon. (Overland Gunleather)
Overland Gunleather- St. Louis, MO

Adam's work is every bit equal to the other big name premium holster makers but his prices are relatively lower and his wait time is more like 4 weeks.
I had Adam make me an IWB for my Glock 26 with some custom features
and he got it to me in about 3 weeks. Plus he's a super guy to work with,
very customer service oriented and great communications. I'm seriously considering having him make me another for my PM45.
Here's my G26 rig:

I think most of us here are WAY beyond mental illness, at least as far as our habit is concerned.

Jocko, you speak of pan heads, that's my language now. The old man taught me well there. Of course I still prefer a hardtail, and consider a shovel head a Japanese scooter. Remind me and I'll tell you about the last one I built for me.

I have a similar holster in the Crossbreed minituck.

See Minituck

The one pictured is the horsehide option. My holster is all black. Fit and comfort are outstanding. It fits both my PM40 and T40, and I expect it will fit the P40 Covert I just bought. For the longer gun, the SuperTuck might be better, getting some leather under the full barrel length. The MiniTuck fits like it is custom made for a PM. They make no distinction in fit for any Kahr model unless .380 or fitted with a lasergrip.

From what I have researched, crossbreed mini-tuck seems like a comfortable IWB. everyone that has them likes them.
