Pocket Carry and Comfort: J-frame or Mini-9?

[billm147]

I purchased a kydex pocket holster from Alan Miller in Greenville, Tn. This fits my G26 like a glove and I have no trouble carrying in the front pocket of cargo pants/shorts.

I also like carrying a J-frame.

I have a j and an LCP. The j is just as easy to carry and frankly hides as well. The LCP has been 100%, but looking at all the pocket lint that accumulates, I have much more confidence in the j.

I choose th MP340 over the LCP 99.9% of the time, in almost any pants...

I carry a 442 with a Crimson Trace LG-405 LaserGrip in a cheapie pocket holster just about constantly. no real comfort issues at all, although it has resulted in retiring a couple pair of pants that wouldn't hide it. I briefly tried packing a Kel-Tec PF9, but it wouldn't come out as smoothly/reliably. and Kel-Tecs make me nervous (that one quit working).

After at least six j-frames, I bought a PM9. After carrying and shooting it a while, I sold all of my j-frames.

I've also owned a P11, P32, two P3ATs and an LCP. All but the LCP are long gone, and to be honest, the LCP does not get carried.
