    When I tried a Remora, I didn't like it. You are right: it is too long. In particular I found over an inch of gathered and sewn material underneath the muzzle of my CM9, which made it ride so high in the pocket that the back of the slide and grip were right at the top edge of my jeans pocket in plain view. I also found it to be way too thick, exaggerating the bulbous mass in my pocket. I tried it in the waist. It is sticky all over, so you cannot insert it and position it in your waist without undoing your belt and maybe your pants. And then it moves out of position before you get buckled up again. Now, the one I got had the sweat shield and it was the 3 way. They make a plain model with no sweat shield or reinforced mouth that is cut down for easier draw. But it still might have that extra gathered material at the bottom. And the material is about 1/4" thick. Yuck! I sent mine back.
    Very interesting...

      Initially, they came out with another size holster for the PM/CM9 (don't remember the #), then they changed to the size 3B. It's not too big but I don't even try and pocket carry with it. I generally wear Levi's and it doesn't work well in that type of application for me. When I carry it, it's IWB @ 3:30-4:00. I'm 5'8", 155lbs, 74 yo and have no trouble placing it in the waist band or in my jacket pocket when out riding the hog. Mostly however, I use the PJholster for IWB.

        pocket carry hoster is all id be looking for. the one they had at the show felt thinner and grippier than my desantis but if its too big i wouldnt want it. i like the material from the remora so i think i'll have to get to the next show early and hope he has some more models to try with my pm9. til then i'll stick with the desantis pocket. i have only carried the pm9 pocket because i havent found an iwb holster that i like. i keep considering the crossbreed style but dont know that the pm9 needs 2 clips on a holster and i have no interest in spending a ton of $ on a custom leather right now.

          Picked up a Remora for my Glock 26. Love the properties of the holster. Very well made and "sticky". The holster does what it's supposed to do... stay put (and very well I might add). Unfortunately, I found that the holster adds too much additional thickness to an already bulky gun. No way I could carry in my pocket.
          Now, with that said, for a thinner gun like a Kahr or Keltec PF9, I think it would be perfect. So perfect, that I'm going to order one for my new PM9 later today. Oh.... one more thing. Customer service is second to none! Great people, very helpful. Highly recommended!
