Those look good. I think with the pocket pistol it would work. I forgot to mention I wear athletic pants, so I think any type of pant holster is going to de-pants me if I carry my 1911. No one needs to see that!

I have a Remora for my S&W Airweight and it works as advertised!

Also, do you have a gun small enough for pocket carry? If you do, I highly recommend a pocket holster from Bob Mika.

That was what I'm trying to decide on. Find a rig for my current guns taht are heavier and harder to conceal, or get a pocket pistol and just make my life easier.

I'm looking at the Kahr PM9 or CM9, and the Sig 938. heavily weighing towards the Sig for SA trigger.

How about one of them back support things with suspenders that guys wear to lift stuff? Just attach a holster.

You have to be careful wearing these a long period. They could affect the kidneys as I understand it due to elastic pressure in back area. I used to wear one in a previous job and the recomendation was to loosen it up when not lifting because of this, even if not worn tight. No idea if medically accurate.

You would think so, and I was hoping so. My discs were competely herniated and smashed the nerves. I'm liucky I wasn't paralyzed and I may have permanent damage. I was in this state for over a year and I had a lot of nerve damage from it and a prior surgery in 2004. My last surgery took 2 1/2 years for my nerves to quiet down without implants. I'm having a pretty hard time on and off with nerve pain, muscle spasms, and mostly discomfort in any position. No meds but a drink of whiskey takes the edge off. When I get muscles spasms it feels like a cheese grater, as they rub against the titanium. I sleep 2-4 hours a night before I wake up from tossing and turning from discomfort. I had a job interview last week. I was able to wear a belt for 2 hours before shooting pains started hindering walking. I wear khakis without a belt when me and my wife go out. From what the doctor tells me it takes a year for the vertebrae to fuse, which I am feeling pretty solid, and it takes another year for the nerves to quiet down. I wish I was in better shape for sure.

Consider the walther pps in 9mm and a remora holster. I got one for cycling...and its turned into an edc. Mine is 40cal...and it bites ur hhand the 9 is a better round for this size pistol
