pocket holster?

Post by big54r »

hey fellas I need a pocket holster for my p-64 that wont print and wont snag on draw.

Also it can't be to heavy so as not to drag my 'britches down any farther than need be, I am not trying to look like a rapper/punk!

does anyone know of a good rig for this duty or any suggestions?

This pocket holster should round out my p-64 holster gear nicely after I get the new owb holster from dickfunk.

I use a DeSantis Nemesis for my pocker holster (style N38).

I imagine a leather pocket holster would give a different profile but would probably be heavier. I guess there are trade offs.

You can tell there's something if you look because of the bulk, but not what it is. I did see an ad for another pocket holster with what appears to be a P-64 in Sportsman's Guide for about $14 and an ankle holster for about $20.

It's loose in a Uncle Mike's #4 pocket holster but I kind of like it because in a draw the holster will definitely stay in one's pocket. If you want tighter, I guess you might try the next lower size, e.g., a #3, but that is designed for 2" 5-shot revolvers or the Sigma .380. Note this was the designation for a #3 with my New Old Stock package).

A few years back I purchased a Bianchi Ranger "Pocket Change Holster", Size 6, for a Kahr K40,K9, MK40 series (I actually bought it for my CW9). It's been sitting around and I tried placing the P-64 and it fits very nicely.

First two photos are with the Uncle Mike's Size #4 Inside the Pocket Holster (Sidekick-8744-4) , followed by two with the Bianchi Ranger "Pocket Change Holster" Size 6, Model 4501.

Obviously, there's more 'room' for the P-64 in the UM, but more likely to slip out of a given shallow pocket.
And gun seems to print less with the Bianchi due to it's larger and flatter profile. Looks more like a large wallet in front pocket.

My preference would be the Bianchi.

Hope this helps.

Updated: It also fit quite nicely in my DeSantis Nemesis that I use for my J-frame S&W 442 (mine has CT laser grips so I don't remember if different than for regular 442/642. I may post a pic or two later). It's not snug but is slightly 'roomy'- which I kind of like-no problem on the draw. Last two photos.

I've tried several different holsters and don't think that you can beat one of Robert Mika's creations. http://www.frontiernet.net/~akim/

I've got four Mika holsters, and have used 'em for 3 years.
