ISO pocket 9mm

**adamb61085** · 05-12-2021, 08:25 AM

Doing landscaping fulltime why dealing with my MIL cancer treatment so i have a more flexible schedule. I have a Shield that i carry most the time but its just not comfortable to carry on my side while riding the zeroturn or weedeating for hours on end. Looking for something I can drop in my pocket behind my phone. A buddy of mine had a Diamondback 9mm that he did this with years ago. Thinking about something like that but not finding any in stock anywhere. Are there any other ones out there that would fit the bill im looking for that are reliable or ones to stay away from? I will probably stick it in a sticky holster so its not just going to be floating around in my pocket. TIA

Glock 43 or J Frame in a Sticky works well for me.

If ARs have chainsaw attachments, they prob have string trimmer attachments. For the zero turn:

All joking aside we take care of a yard for a guys father. The son pays for all the work because the dad has some kind of blood disorder that he doesnt act quite right and it affects his brain function. Some weeks he is cool as a cucumber when we show up to take care of his yard. Well last week we show up and im on the mower and look up to see the dad shoving our weedeater guy across the yard and cussing him up one side and down the other while holding a ball bat. I went over and tried to calm him down and called the son for him to try and talk to his dad. He cussed us and the son out so we just left.

Sig P365 overall the others. If you can’t fit a Shield in your pocket, you need bigger pockets.

I carried a kimber micro in my pocket for awhile, wasn’t bad at all. Kind of regret getting rid of it

Second on the Sig P365 or Ruger 380 LCP.

To me, in front pocket, nothing carries better than a j frame.. a used air weight should be easy to find at a fair price. I haven’t found a 9mm I like pocket carrying.

I've had the Kahr, the Ruger LC9, have a Shield and a Ruger LCR 38. If you cant carry the Shield or the LCR- get bigger pockets. The LCR in a sticky is the easiest to pocket carry or inside your waistband, all the rest were about equal.

You are carrying a get off me and stop what you're doing gun- not a battle weapon- the LCR is great for that and easy to shoot.

taurus 709 aint bad either

**LCO** · 05-12-2021, 11:06 AM

Go with a ruger LCP it will do the same job as a 9 just as effective

Anyone shoot a Springfield Hellcat? snappy lil gun I heard..but what ain't snappy if its subcompact.

**LCO** · 05-12-2021, 11:12 AM

They are badass shot one a few times, They are about as snappy as the rest of the small framed guns I've shot....... I've been wanting to get my hands on one !

I don't know, but wouldn't it be cheaper in the long run to just not cut the guy's yard anymore? The legal representation for the lawsuit from your shooting the old bastard is not going to come cheap...

Hahaha yeah im working on that. There are still a few other places we go cut that i would like to have it. That was just an example of what we deal with sometimes. I have had a few times coming out of restraunts or stores and people looking in the bed of the truck at the equipment. Usually if we are all going in i chain up all the blowers and chainsaws and stuff. But that just keeps an honest man honest.
