I carry a 442 in a Simply Rugged leather pocket holster. It is a rough-side out holster so it sticks in your pocket good, and the smooth-side in allows for a very fast draw. I carry it loaded with Federal 155 gr SWCHP +P or the Nyclads. I will have to try the Speer 135gr GDHP short barrel loads, though.
I also have a Kahr PM9 and a Ruger LCP. I carry both of them in the pocket as well. The LCP gets the nod when the pockets in my shorts or pants aren't deep enough to completely hide the butt of the 442.
In my opinion, you really, really can't beat a 442/642 for pocket carry. The no-lock version is available now from distributors and at great prices too!
