Has anyone tried back pocket carry with an R9s? Did you use an anti-print panel? How as it worked out for you?
Has anyone tried a wallet style holster with an R9s ? If so, how do you like it?
-
I have sold just a few. They take a large back pocket.
-
I have a basic black Ron Graham Rear Pocket holster for my R9s and it just, and I mean just, fits in my rear blue jeans pocket.
-
It's tough to fit the gun and the pocket, If I minimized the panel, some would say it's too small...
-
I have one of RJ's wallet holsters..... I could not be happier with it. I carried an AMT 380 in a Sam Andrews wallet holster for years as a backup followed by a KelTec P3AT also in an Andrews. RJ's holster fits nicely in the right hip pocket of my jeans or dockers type pants. His design approach allows me to get a good initial grip much easier. I have carried my R9s in it every day since RJ sent it to me.

That's just what I needed, a good endorsement. I tend to over caution my customers. ;D

I will give them a both a whirl starting the end of next week 8)
I enjoy my current ones for the Seecamp...

Are there photos of these wallet holsters?

I have been a fan of RJ's "Back Pocket" holsters with their full counter-print panels since he created the design the better part of a decade ago. I have several of his "Back Pocket" models, including one for my R9s. Contrary to their designation, I usually carry them in my strong-side front pocket. Recently, though, I have become a convert to RJ's new and improved "Limited Edition" holster with its curved back panel. That design is the subject of an earlier thread under this header.
Notwithstanding requests from many of his customers for belted and IWB holsters, RJ makes ONLY pocket holsters. One thing which is certain about them is that they are truly works of art.

I'm resurrecting this thread as I have recently received Mr. Hedley's RB-RS back pocket holster. It is artfully crafted, fits like a glove, and carries very, very well in my back pockets, front pockets, and, important for me, it fits perfectly in the right breast pockets of my suits and sport coats.
There is no printing what-so-ever and it is very comfortable. I like to carry back pocket 'wallet' holsters in my front pocket depending upon what style of pants I am wearing. Even in tight jeans (they seem to be getting tighter by the day!) the holster makes it appear as if I'm carrying a wallet, PDA, or, with a set of earphones dangling from my pocket, a small walkman type of radio.
In my back pockets the holster just fits most of my jeans and sits well below the pocket tops of my khakis and dress pants. Mr. Hedley's holster will no doubt be my primary carry holster for my Rohrbaugh - it is just outstanding!

I have one of RJ Hedley Back Pocket Holsters made for the R-9, Fits Perfect, Looks good, Just the Right amount of Room, I also use it for my Inside Pocket of my Suit.

WOW, three endorsements in a row!! I must be doing something right... ;D
-
Hi RJ:
Don't get too excited, your wife may get the wrong idea. ;)
-
.......three endorsements in a row
That even got GeorgeH's attention !!!
I'm going to count that as 3 1/2 endorsements... ;D
-
I only rate as a "1/2 endorsement." Come-on. I should rate as a full endorsement. I love your new pocket holster design. That has to count for something.
-
You're right George, I will up-grade that.. :D
-
I have never tried a wallet or back pocket holster. I have always been afraid sitting on the gun would bend or damage it... Has this been a problem?
-
With the Back Pocket holster that I make, the slide is to the outside, and not being fully sat upon. The whole rig shifts to the outside, just as a wallet does.
-
RJ is right.
I've been a very big fan of rear pocket carry. I got into it when I bought my first pocket gun a Seecamp 25. At that time Galco made a wallet holster that is now illegal, but that is what introduced me to rear pocket carry.
I guess, I've been carring a gun in my rear pocket for maybe 17 years now. Never a problem. In MHO it is an excellent way to carry a BUG.
-
I think it's important to emphasize what GeorgeH said: wallet holsters are now illegal (by federal regulation). I guess our govmint thinks its not politically correct or fair to surprise an attacker and shoot him with your wallet! ??? Go figure.
