Pocket holsters
Does anyone make a pocket holster that does not exit your pocket with the gun? I have tried many, including the "sticky" ones and none work to reliably stay put.

I use High Noon Pocket Grabber for my LCP.

If you twist it a little on the draw the tab usually hooks on something.
I also place my thumb on the edge and push down on the holster when drawing.

Your gun is in too tight if it's coming out all together and you also have to practice it so where you are "hooking" as you draw so this doesn't happen.

I have been using the DeSantis Nemesis for years and never have had any issues. If you are using this and it's all coming out together, try the next size up with one of them.

https://alabamaholster.com/pro...ory/pocket-holsters/.....they have a little ledge that you use your thumb to keep from coming out of your pocket. Have it for a 365 and a Reflex. Really like them..

Another vote for Desantis but for the Superfly, it's basically a Nemesis but with a flap on the front to break up the outline of a gun

I've been very happy with this Galco. Comfortable, minimalist, relatively inexpensive, and it stays in the pocket on the draw.

Mika's are good. The stick to your pocket.

These are my two Bear Creek pocket holsters. The reinforced wing on the bottom of the holster is designed to catch the inside edge of the pocket when you draw. It does exactly that, and the gun comes out cleanly.

Bought a Boraii pocket holster off fleabay or amazon (can't remember which).

It stays in the pocket when I draw the gun.
I have one for my SIG P365 as well.




Not minority enough!

Being made for the individual gun, Mika's holster probably comes the closest. One problem with most of these holsters is that the makers seem to think it must retain the gun like a belt holster, therefore they make it fit too tightly. All it needs to do is position the gun, as well as protect it from dirt or lint.

I would echo the praise for Mika's pocket holsters. As mentioned, they position the gun, so you need to know the shape of your pocket bottom. Is it square or rounded? I have mostly rounded pockets, so I have a rounded holster. They work great, they keep the gun oriented correctly and stay in the picet too. Mine has a small piece of spring steel in the mouth of the holster that holds it open. This helps during the draw and allows the holster to release the gun.

I use the Stickey Holsters brand and they definitely do not come out with the pistol. With some of my trousers it is a bit of a challenge to get the holster out without turning the pocket inside out.

I have been happy with Galco’s horsehide pocket holsters. No problems with drawing so long as you utilize the hook.

I have two Mika's and a Desantis. None come out of my pocket with the gun provided that the gun fits the holster. I've had guns that did quite fit for with large rear sights stick to the holster, but normally they slide right out.

I've had great luck with Alabama pocket holsters. I also like Recluse pocket holsters.

You might check out Aholster. They are made in Tennessee. I'm happy with the one I use with my S&W Bodyguard.
