[QUOTE="alank2, post: 1193196, member: 108"] Hi Everyone, I belt carry a G19 sometimes and pocket carry a 442 the rest of the time. The truth is that pocket carry is so easy that I pocket carry more than I should, but I have a few places I go where pocket carry is necessary. I love Glock reliability and durability, but a G26 is just too big for this role. If it weren't, I'd be all over that. I like the 442, it pocket carries great and is reliable. I've got the trigger what I would call workable for a j-frame. Polishing and a lighter rebound spring make it much better than the heavy weight it comes with from S&W. Even so, I feel that to get accuracy out of it (DAO) I need to double stage it where you pull to rotate the cylinder and then do your final aim and finish pulling to fire. My complaints are: Only 5 rounds, slower reloads, hard to shoot unless you practice a lot, heavy recoil for its ballistics. My other complaint is no fault of the gun, just that I'd like to standardize on 9mm. But, I can't replace it with something that is unable to fill the same pocket concealment role. So I am looking at the PM9. A few years ago it looked like Kahr was having some issues with these, but lately they seem to be past the issues. Does anyone have pocket carry experience with these? What type of pocket holster? Other thoughts? Thanks, Alan [/QUOTE]
