My AMT DAO Backup in 9 mm fits nicely into an Uncle Mike's # 4 pocket holster and fits easily into a pocket. It is, however, heavy for its size due to the all stainless construction.

Rohrbaugh R9s in a Hadley front pocket holster. My stupid Blackberry prints bigger!

I do but then my P64 is really a 9x18. I just ground the finger extension of one mag and installed a spring kit and it goes in my front pocket. And I'm only 5'-8". The spring kit does nothing for concealability but helps a great deal with shootability.

P 11 in the pocket for a few years now. Prints a little, but I don't care.

If you got the money, the Rohrbaugh is the cat's ass of pocket pistols.
Well it has advantages and it has disadvantages!
It's small and seems nicely made, but it's very expensive, can't use +P ammo which I think is important in small barrels and I don't think I'd want to shoot it a lot like I do my PM9.
I am a big guy, 6'7" and 300lbs and I carried the Kel-Tec P11 for years, put over 4000 rounds through it practicing and really felt comfortable with the little gun. I could slide it into my right front pocket, in a Uncle Mikes Pocket Holster and in my pleated dress slacks it hardly made a bulge. I have since replaced it with the new PF-9 and is is much better to carry. I have several hundred rounds through it without any problems. I will say that I had to send the new gun back to Kel-Tec right out of the box as it was shooting 4"-5" high and 5"-6" to the left with any ammo or any shooter. Two weeks later it was returned with a new slide and barrel, and shooting to point of aim. After another several hundred rounds, to verify repeated function, it took the place of the P11. I feel 100% confident in the gun as it has never given me any reason to feel otherwise.

Occasionally a PF-9 in a Nemesis holster, but since the LCP has shown up, it's usually in there.

PM9 vs 340
I had some issues initially with the PM9 but after one trip back to Kahr it has been fine. I would have to say that the form factor is ideal for a 9mm.
During my moderately disgusted phase though I picked up the 340 with the CT grips and between it and the Seecamp it just doesn't seem to be as comfortable to carry.
Recoil is stout with .357 SGDFSB JHP, so I usually I have the same brand in the Plus P.
None of the above comes close to stout though when compared to the Seecamp in .380!!

On occasion, I've pocket carried a PM9 in a DeSantis superfly. It fits in a roomy front or back pocket (cargo pants are good) but it prints... not recognizably, but you can definitely tell there's something in the pocket. The top edge of the gun/holster is just a little thicker than I like.
