Other than the simple shoulder holster I wore in RVN, I dislike the wear for civilian use, which seem to have more straps than mountain climbing gear. OK, so I'm being picky. It look like I'm going need something to pocket carry. I've had a Sig P238 which I liked VERY much, and have given serious thought to the Sig 938, but I don't want to pocket carry in Condition 1. I've had a Diamondback in .380, and also gave thought to the DB9, but I need a pistol that has a slide that is easy to rack due to arthritis in my left hand. (picky again). So, what's out there in a DA 9mm that is easily racked and pocket carried. I'm a small guy (now) at age 73, and I could never carry my G26 in a pocket, no matter how easy it may be for you. So, I need something the size of the 938 or DB9. Oh, I also had a PM9, but didn't like it much. Also, other than my collectible revolvers, I'm not looking to carry one. I'm open to any and all suggestions.
Have you considered adding suspenders and wearing your gun belt a bit looser? If it works, it would be a lot cheaper than buying a new pistol.
