642 Pocket Holster

[JH1951]

As said several times above: Try a Mika holster.
Quite functional! Not flashy. Not expensive. Just does what you want it to do. Mine was given to me by a friend. and it has been in my pocket with a J-frame ever since!

I find it is pocket dependent for me. It is also pants dependent. cargo pockets, I like the Tuff Holster. support side front, Safariland 27. Strong side front, Mika. Back pocket strong side I have a Kramer I like and support side rear I have a Sparks I really like. With my back issues, I almost never use the rear pockets at all and only carry there with some standing protection details in slacks under a coat for a back up. I will echo the above on the Mika as it is what I carry most of the time these days.

I carry my 640 in a holster with no other name but Sticky, size MD5. Made of 2 different synthetics, sticky outside, slick inside. Retains well, always stays in the pocket at draw, fits pockets of both jeans and slacks (for me, anyway), and doesn't wear out the corner of the pocket with muzzle pressure. When it got a mite gamey from pocket carry, I just tossed into the washer with the laundry and it came right back just fine. IIRC, it was <$20, maybe more now.

I use a Remora for my 642 and when I begin the draw I pull down on the grip as the gun is exiting the pocket and the edge of the holster at the area of the trigger guard grabs the edge of the pants pocket and the holster stays in the pocket.

Another Galco fan here. My 642 rides in a horsehide. It is almost impossible to get the holster out of my pocket with the gun in it.

yeah, +1 on the horsehide Galco. the thing turns my pocket inside out when trying to take the holster out, but when i grab the butt of my 442 it stays right where it should... in my pocket. i think the added weight of the leather aids too.

I made mine out of 7 ounce leather. It does not retain my snubby and it's designed to hook the inside of the pocket.
Always stays put.

What snubbyfan said

Here's my 642 and it DOES stay put.

There's a reason you hardly ever see a used Mika's holster for sale.
I've had mine for years now, quality holster.
