In this corner, weighing in at 23 ounces ...

Sig P238 fully loaded with holster...

Jeez, I just love the p238. I'm not a fan of the 1911 style platform but the 238 and 938 are some of the sexiest pistols on the market. I'd like to have a Mk9, go feed that steel sub compact craving.

addicted healer - how does that Remora work IWB?

The remora holsters are a great buy. They work for more than iwb, I like to keep my pistols in the around the house or in my car. It will hold your pistol in place if stuck between the seats. My only issue is my cw9 remora has recently lost it's stickiness.

but it is stilla 380, My PMJ9 weights 18 ounes loaded with corbon powerball, . I like the 238 but just not a gun I would stick in my p9cket...

22.4 ounces with my Desantis Fly (without the shield)
21.9 ounces with my Alabama Kydex

Pocket carry a PM9 in a Desantis Nemesis, no issues

[hardluk1]

My cm9 with 6+1 124gr in a very thin very hard leather holster weights in at 20.1oz

Worse - Palm Beach.

David, the more you carry the more comfortable it will become. I used to worry about printing. Last week I dropped my CM9 in the middle of the Super Market and no one even noticed. If you don't look menacing no one will notice you. I try to blend into the wall.

I'll bet you'd stick it in your pocket if no one was looking, you old reprobate.

You are correct. I carried a lot over the last week using the Desantis Fly without the shield and had no problems with printing.

Sometimes my CM9 carries better than my Rohrbaugh R9.


I have some khaki shorts with big pockets and the R9 is so small and light that it swings out and then bangs against my leg with every step. the CM9 is larger and takes up more of the pocket, it also is a little heavier, so anyway, it doesn't move as much when I walk.

CM9 in a Kydex PJHolster pocket holster weighs in @ 21.5 ounces. In the front R pocket, it looks like a wallet or phone & I hardly know it's there. Used to pocket carry an LCP .380acp, now it's just a safe queen. The CM9 is my go to carry on a daily basis for work. I too, long ago, used to worry about printing, but the feeling of worry goes away quickly!

[jocko]

yes

u do blend in, u would blend i with a outhouse even. so what ur point???? Jusst sayin

At 21.4 ounces: Sticky holster, 7 rounds, Pachmayr grip and Pearce extension; this could be the winner.

[jeepster09]

Or have the real deal at only 29 ounces!

[AnthonyC]

With all the talk about can you pocket a 9, here's my 23 ounce pocket package:

CM9
7 rounds of Speer Gold Dot 124 HP
Pachmayr tactical grip
Pearce pinky extension, ground down
Recluse one-sided leather front pocket holster

I really like my Recluse pocket holster fory CM 9 as well. It has made pocket carrying a 9mm a reality for me as I am not a bulky guy: 6ft1in and about 175lbs.
Thinking of grinding down my Pearce extension as well. What grit sand paper did you use?

I used my bench grinder and then 300 grit sandpaper. Since that photo was taken I've rounded the edges off. I like the Recluse too but find that sometimes that flap gets in the way when I draw - my hand goes between the pocket and the holster rather than between the holster and the gun.
