Sorry for the craptastic iPhone pictures. :rolleyes:

Nice little package. What brand is the holster?

We love pictures around here. Those aren't at all bad neither. I bet that laser would be a blast to torment the family cat. Empty of course unless one's not really fond of the cat. That could be awkward in front of the children.

It's a Desantis Superfly pocket holster. But, it's for the Crimson Trace attachment, so make sure you don't get the regular Desantis Superfly if you get a CT laser. The PM9 won't fit otherwise! I'm glad that Desantis actually made a holster specifically for the PM series + CT grips. :)

Hehe, I do have a dog, but I don't really believe in pointing my PM9 at him (often).

The pictures really are terrible. Let me grab my real camera and get some pics up. Be back in a few. :)

I would point it at my kids before I'd point it at my dog, even the brainless Beagle. Dog's a real animal. A cat while fun to torment from time to time is like a dog with no legs, won't come when you call it anyway so why bother.

Haha, stop it! :D

Anyway, here are a few more pics. Nothing fancy, but at least better than iPhone pictures. :)

Nice rig. How does your CT fit on the business end of the gun? Is there a gap on one side?

WilliamG

Yes, and it's normal from what I can tell (I tried two different CT in the store). Very slight gap on the left side of the business end if the gun is... uh... facing you.

Quick picture to illustrate...

How does it pocket carry for you? I am struggling between the PM9 and the P380. I really would rather have a 9mm, but I worry about it being to heavy or large or whatever for pocket carry. I mainly wear Wrangler or Costco jeans, but shorts too in the summer with a belt. I have no problem switching to cargo style shorts if that will help. I want a 9mm pocket carry gun to carry if possible. I shot the Keltec and found it unpleasant to shoot, and picked up the LC9 and found it too heavy (I might as well try and carry my XD9 sub compact. So, still trying to convince myself that the PM9 or CM9 (if I can find one) will work for me. Thanks.

This is very subjective! I originally had a Bodyguard .380 S&W, and hated the trigger but thought the PM9 was too big. The BG.380 felt a lot lighter and thinner in my pocket. You really won't know what works for you until you can go to a store and ask them if you can put one in your pocket. That's what I did. I know people who don't mind carrying 1911s in belt holsters, and I wouldn't dream of carrying something that large, ever. VERY subjective!

Of course, I ended up with the PM9 anyway, and so far I don't regret it at all..

Mines the same, not up to par in my eyes for $150.

Well with the rebate for me it was $129. I still think Crimson Trace is stupendously overpriced, and their quality control isn't great. What IS great, though, is their customer service, but it bloody well should be for the kind of money they charge for a bit of plastic with a laser pointer on the end... :D

Very much like new cars these days. A bit of plastic with a bumper on the end and we dont even need to talk about insane prices.

Yup exactly. Oh well. I've learned with guns that nothing is perfect. All my firearms have had some imperfections of some sort on them. I know they're "tools," but I like my tools to be perfect! :D

So the Crimson Trace grips just follow that idea perfectly. i.e. not perfect.

Must... get... used... to.... imperfection in my life!!! Gah!
