Retired.  I don't know of anyone since the R9 is a pocket gun; there is an on waist band (OWB) and a in waist band (IWB) holster for the R9, however, you probably know that.

There may be one made for another gun that would work for the R9, just don't know what it is.  Others may chime in here with some help.

I would think that any company that makes a shoulder rig for a PPK would build one for an R9 assuming the have a mold gun.

I would think Galco or Ted Blocker could make a nice rig assumming....

Null also makes one for the R9.  A VERY compact one too.

Hello to all,new member here and thought it was time to make a first post. Long time Gun nut, but new Pup owner.
Just rumageing through my old holster drawer and found some that work extremely well...

Thought I might throw out there that Galco makes a shoulder holster for a 1911 that works great for my Pup. The advantage is that most large gun stores will have this in stock for you to try the fit,and no wait time if you like it. It is not a perfect fit but it is damn close.The model number from the holster  itself is 212-B.

Also found out that the Galco PLE paddle holster for the Walther PPKS is a perfect fit (model # PLE 2048 ),but the Walther PPKS shoulder holster will not work at all.
Galco inside the pants holster for the Khar P40 works pretty well(model sto290), and is also a stock model, no wait.

Most of the holsters that fit the Bersa thunder worked extremely well but are about an inch longer than necessary.

Uncle Mikes inside the pants holster (model 8910-1 size 10) is made of neoprene and is very comfortable for about 12 bucks,but the clip could be a little stronger for safety.

Thanks to all for the posting info,it has been very helpful

     Retired, I don't remember if I have welcomed you. (Don't feel sleighted, I don't remember what I had for lunch either.) Anyway, greetings are just as sincere as they were the first time we welcomed you. So post often, take lots of pictures, and enjoy us as we will you.     Gene

Thank you all!!

I realize a shoulder holster is over kill for such a small pistol.

Just another option depending whats going on.

I prefer an OWB holster.
