The R9 disappears in my jeans in a DeSantis Nemesis holster, it can print in business slacks if I sit down, but I think it is the holster not the gun.

Most people are so distracted, clueless, or otherwise wrapped up in a cloud that they wouldn't notice a tennis ball in your pocket.

You're right.

I had to get my plate sticker today and you can't carry in a govt. building in Illinois and I forgot my fanny pack so I just left the R9 in the glove compartment while I got my sticker.  Then I went to lunch next door, but got my R9 before I headed into the restaurant.  I opened the passenger side door reached into the glove compartment and took out my R9 in the Nemesis holster and put it in my pocket.  Five people were walking by me - just 3 or 4 feet away and they were oblivious.

I wear blue jeans mostly but I have gone to a fuller cut because my pockets are "full" and they are more comfortable.  I will go to the P380 some when I wear dress slacks just to cut the weight and printing. 

A friend of mine told me he does not know how I could carry a pistol in my jean pocket.  Now this guy is 6'-2" and goes about 320.  His jeans are so tight he has can't hardly get his hand in his pocket.  I think you could read the mint mark on a quarter in his pocket they are so tight.

Have both the LWS 380 and two Kahrs, a P380 and a CW380. I much prefer the Kahrs. The recoil on the Seecamp is so stout as to make follow-up shots virtually meaningless. The Kahrs are much softer to shoot, give you the option of an added round, and have meaningful sights.  I chose to add night sights to both of mine. To be perfectly honest, I think the CW performs as well as the P380 and you save a couple of hundred dollars.

Well I actually decided to send the CW 380 back for a tune up.

It's been mostly flawless; however the last two times I've had it out it has not fully chambered a round here or there WITH PREMIUM AMMO. Also, not holding open on last round so I did it. Another gun going back. I guess I'm not too smooth. Hopefully I will get alot of this need to shoot out of my system and mellow out sooner than later. I know my wallet would sure appreciate it.

Anyway, even though I really like the little pistol it needs some factory tweaking after the 200 round break-in.

Well I was able to run some ammo through it the other day. It ran the federal range ammo great, but I don't think it likes the buffalo bore too well. I had a couple of failures to feed with the BB. I think i will look for something else to carry in it that will be more reliable. I liked the buffalo bore because it's +p, but if the gun doesn't feed it reliably what good is it??

To Kahr's defense, they do say that some ammos don't feed as well as others.

I will say that it is as smooth of a small pistol as you could ask for.

If I can find a premium ammo that it runs flawlessly I will be 100% pleased with the little $250 wonder.

Put another 6 rounds of buffalo bore down the pipe and had another failure to feed. No surprise.

I then found a box of Russian tulammo steel cased stuff. I ran all 50 of them as fast as I could load and pull the trigger.

Not one failure of any kind.

Now to settle in on the carry ammo.

Any suggestions?
