What is the most acceptable caliber for pocket carry?

[trickydick]

I must have read the question too fast, I clicked 40cal which is my Walther PPS carry gun. My pocket gun is a Taurus TCP in .380. I really wish they would make a pocket pistol with the trigger and trigger safety like the Walther has.

I carry .38 special in my jacket pocket ( and a few pairs of pants with a long shirt or jacket) during the winter. I hate shooting revolvers, but it is my favorite to carry because it is so lightweight and much easier to conceal than my blocky XD.

If i go pocket carry its the ruger lcp. Usually just to walk across my apt complex to get mail or wash clothes, or make a quick fast food run. But anything other than that and i'm wearing the kel-tec pf9.

As stated many times previously by other in this thread. If pockey carry is a must and only choice it is the 380 that gets the nod. Other than that I have a 9mm, 357SIG, 40S&W, and 45 that all get carried now and again.

S&W 642 .38 with Speer Gold Dots in front pocket.

Been considering a CW9 or G26 but don't know how easy pocket carry would be. Anyone do that?

Ruger LCR .357mag in front pocket or Kimber Ultra Carry 2 .45acp with nite sites on hip. Speer Gold Dot ammo in each.

I think the gun you have with you, even if not ideal, is a lot better than the ideal gun you leave at home.

I often carry a .380 just because it's the easiest to conceal.

Ruger LCR .357mag in front pocket

My pocket pistol as well. Great shooter and easy to conceal.

I love my Springfield 1911 LW Champion Operator in .45 but I don't carry it everywhere. I do have a sweet little Sig P238 that goes in my pocket all day every day,... wherever I go. It is the best pocket gun I could recommend,.... In my opinion. I just never liked the Kel-Tec's or Kahr's enough compared to the P238.

I agree only thing I could possibly find wrong with the p238 is not that many rounds so i usually have my m&p 9c with me also just not in my pocket

I use one of my three .40 caliber Glocks...It is what I train with at work, it is what I'm most comfortable with. Trying to work a .45 and a .357 into the rotation.
