PM9/PPS/Other Small CCW - How/where do you carry?

[cbrgator]

For those that have small CCW's like the PM9, PPS, etc...

How (holster type) and where (on body) do you carry your very small ccw pistol?

I'm kinda tall, 6' ish, pretty skinny, 165lbs ish. Not sure what's best for me. Thoughts?

Kahr PM9, right front pocket (I'm right-handed), in a Mika pocket holster. A gun this size really needs a large pocket, e.g., those of cargo pants and some slacks.

I carry my PM9 IWB in a Galco UDC (also fits my CW9 just fine).
You can tuck your shirt in and all you'll only see the tip of small black hook.
I like it most because the top of the holster is designed to stay open allowing easier reholstering.

I carry a PPS in a Desantis Insider at 4 oclock

 

[bdb benzino]

I carry my CW 9 IWB at 3-3:30 in either a cheap Uncle Mikes or a nice Galco leather peice if I wear a belt that day

Like this with a PPS and a SuperTuck (on my hip right now, I had to check to be sure)

I carry my CW9 on my right hip with a cheapo, open end nylon IWB hoster. I think it was made for a snub nose revolver but the CW9 fits. During the summer(wearing t-shirt nad shorts), its sucks sometimes to carry as the pistol digs into my side. During the winter, my jacket/sweatshirt covers it so i can tuck my t-shirt in between the gun and my side. A good holster helps out alot. My previous Kahr CW9 had a Mitch Rosen clipper IWB and that was awesome. but the gun was stolen and im too cheap to upgrade the holster for my new CW9

MK9 in my right front pocket

 

[Albatross]

Front right side with a heavy belt and a clipdraw. My gun is a kahr pm9.

 

[psyopspec]

Ankle, pocket, or IWB depending on the wardrobe.

 

[exiledrebel]

In summer, I usually carry my PPS in a Galco front pocket holster if I'm wearing baggier shorts or trousers. If I'm wearing more snug-fitting trousers, I carry it in either a cheap IWB or High Noon tuckable IWB holster if I need to tuck in a shirt.

Ccw pm9

I carry the Comp-Tac Ctac on My right hip at 3:30 and a com-tac magazine holster on My weak side.I believe your belt is as important as Your holster when it comes to carry comfort. The PM9 draws well from this set up also and it will go fashion wise from T-shirt to Dress shirt with ease. .....Wvleo

I carry my CW9 IWB at 4:00 in a Comp-Tac Spartan.

 

[Ian's Dad]

PPS here

PPS .40 stays in either a cross breed supertuck or a high noon split decision.. both at 4:00.

 

[dontshakepandas]

I carry my PPS in a dual clip IWB holster from KDholsters at about 3:30 most of the time. Sometimes I will keep it in my coat pocket or cargo pocket if I'm wearing shorts using my Fist pocket holster.

 

[stevek]

PM9 in a FIST 1A Hybrid IWB.

 

[trimore]

PM9 in a Nemesis pocket holster or a Cross Breed Mini-tuck.

The minituck is great but with two clips it shows more than I wish it would. This can be aided by a velcro belt though and velcro clips.

I use the minituch about 85% of the time and have just adjusted wearing my clothes as untucked more than tucked and the clips don't matter.

IdahoLT1 - Is that bottom picture of your upper torso or of how you carry your pistol? I think you're just trying to drive the ladies crazy.

Mitch Rosen Clipper (KahrShop has plenty in stock): used it for a short while then sold it. But in fact it is VERY GOOD: steel clip is very strong you can use it with or without a belt (also, over or under the belt); I could appendix carry it and 3:00, 3:00, 4:00. Rides low and hides well.

I could have kept it but I just couldn't get past the scraches in the inside (I bought it used but the seller did NOT disclosed / false advertised as "like new" condition....), anyhooo, functionally it was PERFECT, let's say I am just too anal... if you are looking for a full-leather "minimalist" design, it is a very good rig.

I looked hi and low for a replacement, had a hard time deciding what to get, I was ABOUT to ring up KahrShop for another Mitch Rosen Clipper (new this time..), but decide to go with H.B.E.'s Pro TL (with reinforced mouth). It is a tuckable IWB.

I will have to wait a few weeks, but I know I won't need to shop for a replacement this time I ordered it with less cant so I will be able to wear it the same ways like I could with the Clipper.

Good luck shopping.
