Recommend pocket holster for baby Glock or similar

Does anyone pocket carry a baby Glock or similar sized handgun? If so, what pocket holster(s) do you use. Which are not worthwhile?

I have a DeSantis Nemisis (old style) for my Walther PPS 9mm (NOT PPK, common mistake) that is made for a baby Glock. I just picked up a Glock 27 the other day (not sure if I'll keep both guns, but gonna try them both for a while). The Nemisis is almost useless with either gun. Can't get a good grip on the gun in the pocket and if I do manage to grip the gun, holster always comes out with it unless I use a finger to push the holster off the gun as I draw (which always gives me a very poor initial grip on gun after it is drawn).

Anyway, I have an LCP and S&W J-frame that I can pocket carry easily and have workable pocket holsters for dedicated pocket carry of both. But occasionally, especially when just around the house, being able to slip my Walther or new baby Glock into a pocket would be worthwhile. I don't mind spending $50 on a quality pocket holster (vs. the $15 I wasted on the Nemisis), but I want to make sure it's something others have used and recommend.

Thanks.

Check out their newer version of the Super Fly. I have one and works much better at staying in the pocket with my Kahr PM9. :thumbs2:

It may sound funny, but I have several expensive leather pocket holsters for many guns, but the one I use the most for my G26 is an Uncle Mike's size 4 pocket holster. It stays in my pocket when the gun is pulled and stands up in the pocket well....

Give Mika a good look - his holsters are inexpensive and get the job done well. I have three pocket holsters, each for a different gun, but I have to say that I like his better than my Nemesis or Uncle Mikes. The material that he uses is thin, but breaks up the outline of the gun very well.

It looks like he has been getting a lot of orders, but he appears to be catching up on them.
