Has anyone here had any experience with the wallet pocket pal holster that allows you to fire the semi-auto without taking it out of the holster? Looks like a novel approach for pocket carry, since you don't have to worry about the holster staying put to get a clean draw. I've found it at several internet sites for $50.00. There's not one to be found locally to see first hand. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=140378403670&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT
 
One of the main reason I even use a holster for my LCP is because the holster prevents you from inadvertently pulling the trigger when grasping he tiny pocket auto. A Desantes Nemisis or similar pocket holster does not prevent you from having a bad draw as the grip is not covered by the holster. While the holster you speak of looks cool, for me it kind of defeats the one of the main purposes in that it does not fully guard the trigger. Unless you wear super tight clothes I don't think "printing" is much of an issue with such a small pistol so the holster you refer to is an needed accessory... Just throw the gun in your pocket and you save money and get the same effect.

In my case, the only reason I want the holster is to satisfy Georgia law. Here you must have a holster for CC regardless where the gun is carried. I don't have a problem with the exposed trigger. I'm more concerned about how the P-32 handles with such a holster. Insofar as the grip normally doesn't allow for any more than 2 fingers on it, I'm not sure that the finger hole will feel much different - don't want to spend $50 to find out!
 
Isn't that the kind of holster that makes the pistol an AOW as far as the BATF is concerned? If so, you'll need a tax stamp for it, but it's only a $5 one, not $200.

No, because it does not attempt to hide the fact that it contains a gun, even though it may remain attached to it when drawing/firing.
