| What have y'all been carrying for pocket rockets in 2023? My top pick is still the ruger LCP in a Galco pocket protector (or similar) holster. |

Mine https://imgflip.com/i/8ajwhe My son's https://imgflip.com/i/8ajx0v Using imageflip, can't get the pics to show If anybody can get them to show up I'd appreciate it. Mine is an older LCP olive drab and black. My son's is an LCP II in black. I wish they'd make the old LCP action with the LCP II sights. I like the revolver type trigger pull / DAO, but the sights are non existent. Of course at the distances you really use these, you don't really need sights. The reason I prefer the DAO trigger, is I carry mine in my right front shorts usually or pants pocket without a holster, and don't carry anything else in that pocket. The LCP II has to be carried in a holster as far as it goes with me and my son. |

It's close to 200.00 and the wait time is months, but they're well reviewed(mostly on P-32s and P3ATs). Have you painted the front sight? That gets them off their belly and onto their knees for me. |

I got them on Etsy some years ago. They are made from maple that has been painted or dyed/stained. Whichever it was, the color has held up well over the years. |
| P365 SAS in a kydex pocket holster I received w/ it from the EE. Usually it's my summer gun. Fall/Winter/early Spring when I'm wearing a jacket or coat, I'm carrying something bigger in an OWB. |

| i like the g42 if i carry a 380, its light and slim as can be, or i have carried a g48 in my pocket if im wearing my black bdu type of pants, with shield arms mag release and mags, you get the capacity of a g19 at half the size width wise, small enough to conceal yet you get more in your hands and a bit more barrel length. |

In addition to a IWB holstered Kimber Micro 9 I carry my .22 Mag North American in my front side pocket. If needed I'm sure it will do more than swearing and hoping for the best in a bad situation.

For you guys carrying .22 pistols have you seen 22Plinksters video on the new CCI Uppercut ammo? He says YMMV using it in the little Rugers but this looks impressive. CCI UPPERCUT - THE BEST 22LR SELF-DEFENSE AMMO EVER MADE? |

Ruger LCP 11.8 oz loaded with Underwood 60gr +P Extreme Defender. Chronoed it at 1305 fps for an average of 7. Carry it in left pocket holster. Used the one provided for a while. After 100+ draws started staying on the pistol so switched to a DeSantis. Have two spare mags and carry one or both in my watch pocket most of the time. Kel Tec PF9 in a DeSantis pocket holster with the 7 round mag. One or two 8 round mags for reloads. I've run about 500 rounds with zero malfunctions including 250 HPs. It is not fun to shoot. 15 oz with mag and 19oz loaded with 115 gr or 124 gr HP. S&W 642 mostly with a 800 fps wadcutter in my jacket pocket no holster when in shit locations. Its light nbut havnt weighed it 13 oz maybe 14 loaded |

He has been a CCI fanboy since he started his channel doing trick shots. I wonder if they are supplying him with ammo like Federal does Hickok45? |
