Title: Pocket Holster Pics?
Post by: sharp on April 21, 2010, 06:39:23 PM

Guys can you post pics of your different pocket holsters?  My situation is this.  I bought a holster that doesn't fit well in MY pants pocket that I usually wear.  I'm thinking if I can see other designs I should be able to tell if they might fit my pockets better than this one, thus saving me from spending money on other designs that won't work any better than the one I have.  Thanks!

Here is my favorite for the pup, I hope you will rule it out as working for you, because they are all but impossible to find, and are no longer being made.  :( (but I thought I'd show you anyway)

That's a Graham holster isn't it?  I had one with my first R9.  Liked it but the back of the slide wore holes in my pants pockets.

But this is the one which exceeds them all -- for practical as well as sentimental reasons:

Yes it's a Graham, I have not had a problem with holes in the pocket, at least not yet. I have another Graham holster also, it's the Reno also a very nice pocket holster.

I never had a problem with Grahamn, I have several of his holsters and they work great.

Below here is one I do cherish as stated above sentimentality and all, a guy we all miss.

OK, I'm trying the pup/holster combo in a different kind of pants today and it works / feels fine!  I think the pants I was wearing have an unusually small pocket and at a weird angle.

Excellent holsters and pictures, Corey.  I would have a hard time deciding on which one to carry.     ;D

Title: Re: Pocket Holster Pics?
Post by: yankee2500 on April 22, 2010, 09:34:13 PM

No wonder there is such a long wait for holsters, the makers are trying to fill Coreys orders.   ;D

Title: Re: Pocket Holster Pics?

I was wondering why the waiting time went up.    ;D

lol, you guys would think I was weird and make fun of me if I told how much pocket leather I have.  I sorta think I might have a problem BUT i've almost got it under control.   ::)  It basically started when I got my first Rohrbaugh a couple years ago.  I had a couple pocket holsters before that for a Seecamp but since then i've gone a little crazy.

Title: Re: Pocket Holster Pics?

Key word there, Corey, almost.    ;D

Oh man, I am liking leather holsters!
Corey has some great stuff, and so does some others above.

Corey, you have plenty. There is that one Hedley holster that stands out.
MECO has taken the pocket holsters to a new dimension with his exotic leathers and new designs. I like the look of the stitching he is now doing.
Nice pictures also Corey.

Let's see if Sharp ends up getting anything new.
You know Sharp, these holsters do have to function.

I think what I feel now is for so long I was buying holsters ( we have all done this) and ended up not using them and we have that shoe box or moving box full of unused holsters.
The ones I have been showing now all work and work well and they look well too.
I'm not afraid to buy one in an exotic leather because I'll use it.

Corey and or chameleon....can either of you part with any of your pocket rigs? ;D

Title: Re: Pocket Holster Pics?
Post by: chameleon on April 25, 2010, 07:49:08 PM

I'm sorry, I can't part with any of mine. Each one has it's own story.
There are a couple that were in the photos, I had bought for someone else, they are no longer mine.Then there are some I own, that are not in the photos.

I love Meco, and he will do a great job making you a very well made pocket holster.

Title: Re: Pocket Holster Pics?
Post by: ccoorreeyy on April 25, 2010, 10:46:45 PM

Sorry I'm not in the market for selling eithor but I do agree on ordering a MECO (or 2) and in a few weeks (8-10) you can have top of the line leather too.

Title: Re: Pocket Holster Pics?
Post by: kjtrains on April 26, 2010, 08:44:04 PM

sharp.  Put that order in.  Start the clock in your favor!    ;D

Title: Re: Pocket Holster Pics?
Post by: sharp on April 27, 2010, 03:26:30 AM

I do have my Meco "Armigator" now and I think I like it!  (Purchased from forum member).  Just the one pair of pants I was wearing the 1st day that it didn't go too well with.  I am still looking for something else though.....what would be good (different) for a second rig?

Title: Re: Pocket Holster Pics?
Post by: kjtrains on April 27, 2010, 06:50:10 AM

I would call Robert and ask his advice.  I've got a cross draw ordered similiar to Dan's for driving.  That may be another option.

The R9 is a bit on the large side for true pocket carry. I have friends that just can't get any pistol in their pockets.
These guys weight about 140lbs, their pants have small pockets!
Yeah, holster selection is key and that is why I believe we all need more than one rig.

Here's the pocket holster I use.  It doesn't look like much but it sure is comfortable.  Mitch Rosen Pocket Softie.   Under the suede is a thin layer of neoprene which is on top of the leather holster.  The suede keeps the holster in your pocket.  The neoprene makes it soft and comfy.  It's comfortable being in my pocket all the time - and comforting.

From http://www.mitchrosen.com  The new Pocket Softy™ is made with a neoprene backing covered with suede. This effectively eliminates the visual outline of the pistol or revolver and is infinitely more comfortable than the hard plastic used in some other manufacturers' products. In addition, the suede tends to grab the inside of the pocket, aiding in not allowing the holster to come out when drawing.

The Mitch Rosen looks very nice, thanks for the report. I have only one M.R. Holster for my Sig.

The R9 looks good in there.
