I found this Lucky Gunner video very enlightening. I'm sure many of you may already have this knowledge "in your pocket", but I didn't, and I think it brings some value to the subject of CC for some carriers that goes well beyond "better to have a small gun than no gun at all". The video is 10 mins with an intro by a master class shooter/instructor, followed by Lucky Gunner's Chris Baker's comments.

I bet some of us may not be aware of this information and perspective in the same way that I was not either, and would like to hear your guys thoughts about this particular subject.

Once I switched to pocket carrying my P365 (9mm), after having a gun on my hip 24/7 for 14 years, I don't know why I didn't sooner. I no longer carry on my hip, and have no desire to ever again. If I want little smaller/lighter, the BG 2.0 is perfect and .380 works for me; plus, the size of the gun is on par with guns carrying much smaller calibers. I also keep my LCPII (w/7 round mag) around for when I go walking/jogging around my neighborhood.

Pocket carry is a viable option provided your clothing "dresses" for the gun. For me, its jacket pocket most of the time. The Yoop has two seasons:
Winter and August. So a jacket is used often!

I wear shorts pretty much year round and have been pocket carrying for years.
I used to carry a LCP but upgunned to a 365 a few years back. It sits upright in a sticky holster between my leg and my cell phone. The cell phone breaks up any outline that may print.
