Is there such a thing as a 9mm pocket pistol

[George9]

But two in the pipe is better the a handful of rocks! It's two that you can count on. Two .410 will let you be a little off and still hit your targer. That will let you use .45 colt, or 410 shot shells.. Don't think I would want to be on the reciving end of them.

cs 9 cs45 pocket gun

I carry a cs 45 or a cs 9, when it will fit in the pocket. Cargo pants and a few jeans will work.

That's true, but I still prefer 5 rounds of .38 or 8 rounds of 9mm in my pocket. Because that is more than 2
(pretty sure anyway, even though I'm not a math major)

Colt Pocket Nine Series 90...

3" BBL...produced in 1999 only

Can be yours for only $899

Comes with original box,holster and five mags.

Was just looking at it online.

Colt was absolutely nuts to stop making this gun. They lost the whole CCW growth years.

Tinman, Sorry! I looked right over the word " prefer ".My bad! George

Pocket carry comes down to preference and your body size.

I can comfortably conceal pocket carry a 9c in a custom pocket kydex holster I made.

Can everyone? Prolly not.

Rohrbach, if you wanna spend 900 bucks, which I don't.

I was considered Rohrbach as my first CCW, Asked my friend to let me shot his once - I have small to medium size hands, but she was too small to control it in the range with double taps. also she's a hand beater... I thought that in stressful SD situation, with heavy recoil she might be liability... Another set back is the requirement to change recoil spring every 200 rounds. My trip to a range with one gun usually means 300 rounds. with two - 500 rounds. I feel like the same size, but manageable 380 acp is a better choice over Rohrbach. but it's just my opinion...

The reason I avoided a mouse gun (380) for pocket concealment was I believed it was an inferior round vs a 9mm especially from a short barrel and that was a correct statement until now.

My opinion has changed after researching balistic gel tests on Youtube.

Lehigh 380 ammo is a machined fmj that will deliver results in denium and gel tests from a mouse gun that surpass my Shield loaded up with Gold Dot short barrel
+P 9mm jhp.

Before you blow me off as nuts search for yourself. (Shooting the Bull on Youtube)

The $2 per round uniquely machined bullet rips up gel like a much higher caliber round and my new Taurus TCP from a YouTube video handles the round just fine even firing from weak hand. The Shield 9mm also handled the 9mm version but the Glock 42 and Beretta Storm jamed.

So at $2 per round how many are you willing to shoot in your gun to make absolutely sure it is a reliable alternative? That is what I see as a stumbling block to exotic expensive ammo.

I plan to shoot about as many of the $2 Lehigh rounds as I did testing the $1.20 per round Gold Dots in my Shield -- 1/2 the box.

Seems to me that most small semi-autos are too "square" for pocket carry. I have carried Glock 26 and 27 pistols in a Galco horsehide pocket holster in khaki or cargo style pants with no real difficulty. The rub is actually drawing it smoothly. I have to place the thumb over the rear of the slide to keep it from hooking on the pocket during the draw. My bobbed hammer 1970's Model 60 or newer Model 442 works much better in a pants pocket - even my $10 Wal-Mart Wranglers. I can actually have a firing grip with the gun completely in my pocket and draw it much smoother and faster than with the chunky Glock. Pocket carry for me is usually as a backup to a belt gun, such as a Glock 22 or a full size 4" service revolver or lately, a full size Kimber .45.
