Don't laugh, I realize lots of you guys have been carrying consistantly for years.....
I bought my R9S last month and the day I received it I began carrying it daily. So far its only day 18 days, but I've learned a few things. I started out in back pocket carry. I've had it in a nemesis loaner holster most of the time.
I've moved to a front pocket carry. I found the rear pocket to work fine, but it gets a little hot back there on hot days. I think there is more movement and pressure when sitting when its in a rear pocket.
I thought printing would be less in the rear pocket, but at this point I think its a draw (pun intended).
You can tell you have something in your front pocket, but it isn't distinct enough to tell what it is.
I have ordered a split design from Meco. I believe it to be interchangable between front and rear.
The Rohrbaugh is exactly what I need. I might sell a few revolvers and get one more.
On a side note;
My wife pointed out something to me that I've never heard or thought about. (which I was honestly surprised she knew something about guns that I didn't)
I was showing her my airweight bodyguard compared to the Rohrbaugh. She said she had heard children shoot themselves with revolvers commonly because they tend to use their thumbs to depress the trigger, so they turn the gun around towards themselves; use both thumbs and shoot themselves. Not sure if that's true, but it makes perfect sense to me. Also the lack of safety on revolvers is scary (some do have child locks, but doubt many people use those as if they needed the gun such a lock is not easy to turn off in the middle of the night or quickly)
I have two small boys, I found that I feel very comfortable knowing that they can't possible cock the slide to load a round into the Rohrbaugh. (I consider that a form of a safety)
If anyone has insights into better holster style from Meco, speak now or forever hold your piece....(one last pun)
