P3AT pocket holster, what do you use?

[davidd]

How do you carry your p32 or p3at? I know it is light and small and can go anywhere, but to break up the gun outline, how do you carry it to conceal the gun? any pics or name brand holsters would be appreciated, or other techniques. thx

The DeSantis Nemesis at about $16.00 works well. Here is more information about other holsters.

i use the nemisis... being kinda universal, after a while, the gun sag leaving the barrel show....a couple of stiches in front of the trigger guard will make it last a life time....an other trick...over time it losses the sticky....rubbing alchohol brings it back to life....a gooood investment at $15 range....gpr

I live in a no-carry part of the world, but I am allowed to take a gun along while hiking my own land. The 3AT is my first choice.

Next time you are at the mall, have a look at the 'cargo pants', the ones with the big flap pocket on each thigh. Some of them come with a little zipper pocket located just above one of the big flap pockets.

The little zipper pocket is covered by the flap pocket, which means nothing will print. Anything you drop in there just vanishes.

A bigger gun would be uncomfortable in that pocket after a while, but I've found the 3AT is thin enough and light enough that I will actually forget it's there.

I gave up on holsters. I tried the Nemesis and it worked oK but good luck getting the gun out all the time.

I installed the Arma Laser and it does just what I want, breaks up the line of a gun and makes things more square. It sits in my pocket just right now and doesn't look like a gun at all.

check my post ' some assembly required ' . the wallet holester prints 2-3" groups at 25' fast fire.

I had many pocket holsters, but sold them all and kept the Robert Mika version.

Very inexpensive. You will not regret the purchase. Buy it and don't look back.

I've been using a Back Pocket holster by Pale Horse for my P3AT. Had it for about two years and been very happy with it. Looks just like a wallet from the back. Not too bad to sit on. Works in slacks as well as jeans.

I use an Uncle Mikes #3 pocket holster.

I use the K & D holster...shark skin over leather. Conceals easily in my right front pocket...presents very quickly. See photo in earlier thread...posted below:

1st generation K&D Pocket Defender.

Wow - talk about flashbacks. I figured for sure those versions would be long gone by now. We changed style/cut a couple of years ago, but it's heartening to see the original models still being used.

I use an HBE Leatherworks pocket holster for my P32. It's similar to the ones in his forsale section. The rounded bottom in the pocket helps to "seat" it in my jean pockets.

 

[geterdone]

Big plus on the desantis. I can't imagine anyone having a problem getting the weapon out.

 

[davidd]

well, this would have been easier if there was a clear consensus, but i see i am going to need tospend some time looking at the options. i did not see a lot of pics of the different ones but i did like the KD one, but it was a bit expensive

K&D 2n'1 for my P3AT

 

[rantingredneck]

I don't own a P3AT though I want one badly. I own an NAA Guardian .32NAA. I just ordered a "cookie" front pocket holster from palehorseleather. The link is posted above. It cost me 12.00 + 6.00 shipping. I've heard good things about them and when I recieve mine I'll report back. I'm not sure if they offer the same holster for the same price made for the P3AT. There is also the back pocket version mentioned above. 18.00 shipped is about the cheapest I've seen anywhere for a pocket holster of any kind.

I use one of these:

My wife carries hers in a Bianchi 6D-9 IWB clip-on for left hand, carried over her right hip as a cavalry-draw SOB. I often use the DeSantis 'Sting' on the right, but lately have taken to using a Nemesis and carrying my spare mag in a cheap $2.00 fleamarket nylon folding knife belt sheath.

 

[Clark]

$11.15


I carry the P3AT with a clip, in my shirt pocket.

 

[Clipper]

I had one of those clips...It kept the butt of the gun too low behind my waistband to be quickly accessible, and I got rid of it. Kel-Tec makes a neck strap so it can be worn like a pendant, too.

I see Eric at HBE has a pocket holster built and ready to go. This is the same holster I've worn almost daily for 2 years. It's excellent, stays in the pocket, and also doesn't shift and rotate in most of the pants/shorts I wear.

Uncle Mike's, I think it's a #1. Whichever the smallest one is.

 

[Jorg Nysgerrig]

For those of you who carry the holsters with the extra magazine pouch, like ths Sting above, how do those ride in the pocket? I know some say it squares off the profile, but does it look bulky or does the holster curve around your thigh somewhat?

I know this website http://www.theholsterstore.com they have some holters..... I bought from them off ebay, good people. I reckon their pretty cheap...

Funny, your signature in your profile on your other posts and profile says you own that store.
