    I carry my CM9 in an IWB holster and a spare 6 round mag in my right front pocket (awkward since I carry on the right side as well). I have been carrying this way for a long time but the mag digs in my leg and I thought it would be nice to free up some room in that pocket (wallet only will be nice). BTW I have never had any problems with the rounds coming out of the mag while in my front pocket.

    I ordered one of these https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...?ie=UTF8&psc=1 .

    I am waiting on the brown truck right now. I just hope it is not too bulky. This will most likely be placed horizontal at about the 10 - 10:30 o'clock position on my gun belt. The size 2 should also work for an extra 1911 mag as well when I decide to carry my Colt Wiley Clapp CCO this winter (part-time only because I loveeee my CM9 so much).

        Try using a multi-tool belt pouch for mag carry and hope nobody needs pliers.

          That is a clever idea!

            Some of the old phone pouches before cell phones got so big work well too.

              I carry my CM9 in an IWB Kydex holster at the 2:30 o'clock position. I carry one spare magazine in a Hollis mag carrier at the 9-10 o'clock position.. I tried carrying a spare mag in a lower pocket in my cargo shorts - at the end of the day there was one loose round in there; no more of that for me! The Hollis works very well although I got it for a single stack Walther PPS 9mm magazine. I do have to adjust the carrier's tension depending on which magazine I am carrying. Easy to do with a Phillips screwdriver.

                    You can reach Beardog via this forum. But at last report he is no longer making them (unconfirmed). I got mine used right here. So maybe a WTB thread might scare one up.

                      For pocket carry or IWB: Have a Beardog for CM9 but if he is retired, Pocket Mag for PM 9/40 from M. Bullard Leather Mfg.'s Online Store. Have one for my CM390. He has a pocket and clip models for pocket or IWB. Excellent. Also Remora's mag pouch fits 2 9mm/6 or 380/6-7(magguts) mags quite well and can be carried either way. Often free with a Remora holster purchase.

                          Elite has a couple variations. Also they have a package that includes a pocket holster for your gun as well as a pocket mag pouch. Check them out at http://www.elitesurvival.com/index.php?p=home

                            Thanks for the links!

                            So I was at the LGS today, waiting forever for NICS to do their thing, which by the way they never did. Apparently there is some new system that is completely hosed up.

                            Anyway, I was perusing the stuff on the wall while I waited and asked the guy if he had any pocket mag pouches/holsters. He said he didn't. I had nothing better to do so I carefully scanned the stuff on the pegs and ran across some stuff with Remora labels, holsters. I kept looking and found some mag holsters, a dual and a package of singles. The dual was too wide to fit in my pocket but the singles looked good so I got them.

                            I got to look at and handle the PM9 but not take it home yet. Waiting on NICS.

                              Hello there, SteveOak. Used to live in Ehrenberg, AZ once upon a time. Visited Phoenix occasionally. Two seasons down there- Summer and Air Conditioning. Just kidding- I used to love winter- all three weeks of it.... Actually, I didn't- too many snowbirds! My solution is essentially a camp shirt for the coverage length. Used to to carry two extra 6 rd. mags in De Santis OWB dual mag holderfor total of 19 rounds (one in the pipe, as they say). But recently acquired two extended 7 rd mags for follow-ups, so I can now pack 21 rounds. I gotta hear more about current AZ CWC laws. Thinking of retiring there....

                                I frankly do not carry a spare mag on my person. I am very happy to carry 7+1 in my PM9 with an extended magazine for any immediate events requiring the delivery of deadly force in fear for my life. This way, I carry nearly all the time, absent of course any restricted buildings or areas*.

                                I also keep a spare PM9 mag, and a loaded Beretta PX4 Compact 9mm, with an extra mag for it (interchangeable ammo, dig that!) readily available to me in a car safe in the trunk of my car. That's my solution.

                                * p.s., having the car safe is ideal for those restricted situations.
