Has anyone had any success in finding a pocket holster for the CM9 that is comfortable. I have tried inside waistband holsters and due to some health issues I have I can't find a comfortable one and I was thinking about giving the pocket holster a try even though some say the CM9 is to big for pocket carry. I have a outside the waistband holster I like but would like a more concealable option. Thanks for the help.

Another vote for the Uncle Mike's pocket holster. I use the No. 3 - it is not what they recommend, but it fits the CM9 perfectly. It has a nice band of grippy stuff (that's a technical term) and it stays in my pocket when I draw.

I easily conceal in jeans or even dress pants with the pocket holster - but for shorts or if I am wearing a shirt on the outside, I like the Blackhawk Inside the pants holster. It is very soft and comfortable. The one that fits best for me is the No, 05. I wear it at about 2 o'clock and it doesn't print even when wearing light shirts. Of course, tie dye's or Hawaiian shirts are best! :D

Both holsters are available for about $10 online. If you have a Cabella's nearby they charge about $15 and you can return them if they aren't comfortable.

This one is cheap, but really high quality. Designed by a woman who is a fashion designer and a gun owner. Extremely comfortable, disguises the shape of the gun well, stays in the pocket when you draw and it is just $14.95 shipped to you. It is the Stays-Put Ultra (http://www.concealmentspecialties.com/products.html).

I use an Uncle Mikes #3 for my PM9. Works fine for me.

BTW, I don't have health issues, but I've never found an IWB holster that I like either. The Remora comes the closest, but i still Prefer belt carry when possible.

Danger...Danger....I just bought a current production Nemesis holster for my CM40. It is sized for a full sized Kahr and will be wider and longer than your PM9 by nearly an inch. Read my post about my exchange with DeSantis concerning this holster for the sub compact CM9/40; PM9/40 pistols.

DeSantis ticked me off since I use and like the Nemesis for my Glock 27.

Ordered an Alabama pocket holster but it still is not here. Their web site states that they are running behind on their orders due to demand.

Has anyone tried the Pocket Holster from PJ Holsters? I tried one of his IWB holsters and it was great quality I just couldn't tolerate anything IWB. I was thinking of trying his pocket carry. I like the idea of the Kydex since its a firm cover for the trigger gaurd and so light and thin?

+1 Though I did a few mods on mine to get it just as I like.

I use a Nemisis for my Kel-Tek .380 and like it very much but it would add to much thickness to my PM9 pocket carry, not so with the Alabama Kydex holster.

+1 The pocket protector works like a charm.
I trimmed that metal crap off the top though :)

I have a Desantis Nemesis holster, but I barely use it as I mostly carry IWB and alotta my pockets arent deep enough to conceal, the bottom of my magazine is visible because its not in there deep enough. That said, I think the Desantis is kinda thick and would buy an Alabama holster instead, (have heard good things about them, including from Hickock45 on Youtube) seems to have a much thinner profile.

I use a DeSantis Superfly. I have liked it just fine for years. It has enough material to protect the pistol, break up the outline and even muffle the noise if I bump a railing, etc.

But, I'm thinking of trying the Stays Put Ultra. The reason is for the closed end that will keep more pocket crud out of the end of the pistol. That would be a big improvement worth the $15.

+1, exactly what I did to the Galco. Works great! Hated that metal around the mouth, made the CM9 harder to draw & re-holster. Works great now! :D

I carry my P380 in a PJ Holster pocket holster and love it. It's super thin, light weight and doesn't print. I modified mine a bit to give me a better purchase on the grip when drawing.

Same here, while I wait for my Alabama holster, bought it as a stop gap but it works great and will stay for my road bike carry.

I have used a trace/tarco holster I bought off ebay for over a year. It has a unique split top which preforms two functions: it lets you grip the CM9 securely before drawing, and, as you grip the CM9 part of the leather folds outward which wedges the holster in the pocket as you draw. If you get any printing, as with tight thin material, it looks like a typical square wallet.
I am not in any way associated with the seller, just reporting what I use.
