I have a DeSantis Nemesis pocket holster for an Airweight J-Frame. It seems to hold the gun in the right position, but my concern is how easy the gun slips in an out of the holster - almost too easy. I do understand that a pocket holster cannot have the type of retention that belt mounted...

I recently purchased a 638 as my first revolver! My other handguns are Sig semiautos, and I needed something more concealable. The little semiautos most favored for CCW did not fit my hand as well as the J-frames. So far (I have only put about 100 rounds through it in practice), I am very...
