My Picks
I evaluated pocket carries for about two years.
First (newbie) BERSA BT .380. Too big, too heavy. I still have it, I throw it in my vehicles when I travel for backup to the pocket carry. Three magazines of Remington Golden Saber 102 gr.
Second. Based on THR members liking of the X42 I bought a 642 shot it, put a set of CT 405s on it carried it in a DeSantis Nemesis (still too heavy) it is now my wife's night stand revolver.
Third. Kahr PM9, just to try. Not bad, prints a bit more than a J Frame.
Winter carry in TN.
Fourth. Liked the J Frame concept; but I wanted something just a bit lighter.
Bought one of the first S&W M&P 340s, with CT 405 grips and it is probably my favorite carry 2.5 years later, for all around pocket carry. The sighting system, XS night sight and gutter, .357 capable and the CT grips make this a great pocket carry. Put it in a Mika Roundcut holster, carry a Bianchi Speedstrip with 4-5 extra rounds and out the door you go.
Fifth. When the 340 is too big and bulky which in some cases, once in awhile it is (suits), I added a Seecamp LWS 380. It shows not at all in a DeSantis Nemesis holster.
I need to get a Hedley Holster and magazine carry (RIP Jim) on order.
