Nah problem is that the rifling caused it to spread excessively at the range you shot most likely but 10-15ft shouldn't be a prob.

Well, whatever it was, the pellets from the shell hit it both times, and didnt kill it. Not something id trust my life to

I've been fulltime pocket carrying for a few months now. No button inside of my pockets

I just picked up a S&W Airweight 642 that I'm liking more and more simply because I can carry it in my pocket.

The pocket is good and goes with cargo shorts perfectly.
Exactly, my S&W 640 drops right into my right front pocket and doesn't print at all. I purchased a pocket holster for it and it actually works better without it.
Why do I carry a handgun? Because a 12 gauge 870 is too hard to hide.

I'm not a fan of the ruger lcp. My girl has one and it doesnt feed hollow points really at all. My keltec p3at is awesome I keep it in my pocket while Im back in the states and always bring it during range days and drop 50 rounds through it. Never fails to surprise me with its accuracy.

I often pocket carry and my two favorites were my 357 Ruger LCR and my 9mm Kel-tec pf9 but they have been replaced with a 357 S&W m649 and a 9mm Shield. I like the replacements much more!!

I pocket carry exclusively (P250SC), and HIGHLY recommend a pocket holster.  It protects the gun, is much safer, and eliminates printing.  I carry it in my right pocket and put nothing else in my pocket with it.

I pocket carry (with a pocket holster) exclusively.  It works for me.

I have a WRB pocket holster, which has an exterior of grippy foamed plastic. When I wedge it IWB, my 5 shot revolver is not going anywhere. This makes for very quick AND SAFE transitions from mode to mode... Car, IWB, pocket, house. Gun always holstered, trigger never exposed. The holster was $10 or $15 at the gun show. Phone number 888 824-2899 for the company. Recycled plastic, too.
