Ruger LCP must haves and what holsters are you using?
That Blue Force Gear holster looks nice, but the tight fit is all wrong. A pocket holster should fit, but have more of a relaxed fit. The gun should be able to slide right out.

Agree. I want very little to no retention in a pocket holster. All I want it to do is hold the gun upright, and cover the trigger.

It's form-fitting to the gun, but not tight whatsoever. The holster keeps the gun in place in your pocket, but there's no resistance when you draw. The looks are deceiving, trust me.

I have a holster made by a member here, bronicabill. Don't know if he is still making them. It is meant to wear in your back pocket. The design puts a large leather flap over the gun, so it doesn't print. Looks like a wallet in your pocket. I like the design a lot, very comfortable, keeps the gun controlled, easy to draw, and super low profile.

When he picked it up and held it upside down, the gun should have fallen out. He demonstrated that the holster retained the gun, which isn't how a pocket holster should work. It also showed that he had to forcefully shove the gun into the holster.
