  • Back Pocket P380??

    I need to find a pistol/holster combination that will allow me to back pocket carry in dress pants. (I used to own a Seecamp to fill that role, but I sold a few months ago.) I've established that my KT P32 and P3AT, as well as my Remington RM380, are just big enough that, although they work fine in jeans, they ride at the very top of the back pocket in dress pants and can be seen by someone looking down into my pocket (not glaringly obvious, but I won't risk it).

    My P380 looks like it might just be small enough to work, but before I spend the money on a holster to check it out, I thought I'd ask here to see if anyone has made back pocket carry work for the Kahr, and--if so--what holster did the trick for you.

    Thanks for whatever help you can provide.....

    There are several "wallet holsters" on the market if they interest you. I have seen many varieties on Amazon. https://www.amazon.com/s?k=wallet+ho...ref=nb_sb_noss

      Thanks. I've been looking at some of them, but I hate to drop $$$ only to find out that the profile is just too big for my pants pocket. Been there, done that.

      Was just hoping that someone else has tried this kind of carry with good results.

        Recommend taking a look at http://pocketholsters.com/

        I have been using their back pocket holsters for a long time and found them to work very well with seecamp, guardian, RM380. They have an option for a keycase zipper flap atop the holster which is made to block a downward view. I have not used that option but it might be of interest to you. I see the zipper flap option for lcp but not for p380. You could look at the lcp version to see what it looks like. Maybe they would do it for you custom.
        I reject your reality and substitute my own!

          Thanks...looks like good stuff. Are you able to back pocket these in dress slacks, such as chinos?

            My "dress slacks" these days are limited to jeans and mostly duluth trading type work pants, carpenter pants. I don't think I would be a good comparison. I can give you the measured dimensions of my holsters (the flat panel). You could see if that size would fit in your pocket.

            This is the anti-print panel height/width:
            seecamp 4 13/16 x 3 13/16
            guardian 4 13/16 x 3 7/8
            RM380 5 3/8 x 4

              That's very helpful. Thank you!

                Boscobarbell,

                The holster by pocketholsters.com WILL work very well with dress slacks and the P380.

                  I use Uncle Georges back pocket holster. Very thin and hardly bigger than the gun itself. Highly recommended. https://www.unclegeorgeswalletholste...380-and-cw380/

                      Can be used as a wallet holster or remove the screws and use it as a pocket holster. He will make it for you with or without the laser attached.

                        I use a Recluse OS holster for front pocket carry of a P380, but it works fine and does not show in a back pocket if the pocket is deep enough. The back panel is about 5-1/4" high x 4" wide.

                        It is available in right or left "hand" depending on which way you want to turn your hand to draw from a back pocket.

                          I love Bear Creek's work. When I sold my Seecamp, it hurt me more to lose the BC holster than the pistol.

                          Could I trouble you to measure the back panel on yours?

                              I tried to imitate his work by making myself one for the P380 without the crimson trace. Turned out pretty good.
