Re: pocket pistol ideas?

lcp max with the 12 round mag is not a bad choice at all
https://www.falcoholsters.com/blog/befo ... cp-max-380
i have 3 of them. two with stock sights, one with big dot xs
i put the clipdraw on one. but usually either pocket carry in the superfly or ...
Falco holsters makes an ambidextrious belt slide holster with a spare mag pouch
i have no affiliation with any company, but this is my fav belt slide type holster for the lcp max because of the spare mag thingy
12 rounds + 12 spares + 1 chambered isn't bad capacity...even if surrounded by a whole pack of wild hogs/dogs/critters

Summer short pants-type carry is sometimes one lcp max in superfly in pocket, and another in the falco belt slide so 24+2 ready to go in the 2 pistols,,,with spare 12 rd mag for a total of 36 rounds plus 2 chambered in the 2 pistols.

also this works for pistol+ spare mag

i also bought the pocket trigger cover kydex clip cover on a lanyard that pulls the trigger cover off when drawn. i used it once or twice but not a huge fan of the lanyard string in the way, but if pocketcarry or use the keltec type clip, I feel a need top holster or have trigger covered so if i forget and put chapstick in that pocket, my chapstick doesn't pretend to be a finger and surprise me with a trigger pull.

It is 10 rounds with a XS Big Dot Sight. Great for a drop in quick gun. I installed a Clipdraw on mine like the old KelTec versions. I understand it is a .380 or “just a .380” however you have 10 rounds. I am not one of the run it is just a .380 guys. The .380 has stopped a lot of threats. It is very lightweight.

I have been considering the LCP Max too. I intend to go try one out at Shootsmart next range trip. I have ordered boot grips for my 642. I will try it as my pocket gun for a while.

Re: pocket pistol ideas?

MAKE SURE IT'S GENERATION 4 (I didn't care for the earlier models so much)
Lots of upgrades between gen 3 and 4 like slide locking back on last round... and others

Re: pocket pistol ideas?

i like superfly pocket holsters to reduce "printing"
in a SuperFly holster (cheaper elsewhere) https://www.desantisholster.com/super-fly/


380 pocket pistol
Ruger lcp Max (12+1 rounds .380)
and for ultra deep concealment LW Seecamp .380 (ultra small, but heavy and less capacity


9mm
I like the price but not the trigger on GX4 (love gun & price HATE the trigger)
Taurus Gx4 13+1 rounds 9mm (in a superfly pocket holster)
Springfield Hellcat 13+1 ( I love this one)
Sig p365 love it too

above is with the 13 rd mags which fit my jeans & slacks, there's also
smaller 11/12 rd mags for small pockets and the
15 rd mags available for belt or cargo pocket carry

lower capacity small 9mm
p9 or cw9 from kahr has good reviews

(since I got held up by FIVE (5) armed guys once, and 2 armed guys another time, capacity is a concern of mine, plus Babyface nelson was shot like 13 to 18 times before killing 2 FBI angst then going home to have dinner before bleeding out. Placement matters, capacity can matter too with multiple gang-type/RIOTer-type/ attackers.)
