I have a potato in my pocket

I've tried about four different snubbies (Taurus mod 85, 605, Smith mod 638, 340SC, Kel-Tec P32, Beretta mod 21) and although I prefer the no-brainer simplicity and reliability of a revolver, I have never been completely comfortable carrying one. It feels like I have a potato in my pocket! I just recently "fondled" a PM9 for the first time and I'm going to have to give this little jewel some serious consideration for full-time pocket carry. While the empty weight of the PM9 is about 14 oz, adding the 1.5 oz mag loaded with 9mm pushes the carry weight to about 20 oz. You'd be surprised at how heavy a 20 oz handgun can get in the pocket after all-day carry. Then, there's the price issue and the PM9 doesn't come cheap. I'm also looking at Kel-Tec's brand-new P-3AT (.380 auto) but I really-really like that 9mm over the .380 round. Having tried about a dozen handguns for full-time pocket carry, I have come to the following conclusions: If you think it is either too large or too heavy, I assure you it is indeed TOO large or TOO heavy. Trust me on this one. Best wishes..........

<mml> what really baffles me though
<mml> is this guy talking about a "full time pocket carry" as though it's just perfectly natural to carry
    a gun all the time, and furthermore it's the sort of thing you just chat about like it's no big deal
<mml> HELLO YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT HAVING A FUCKING GUN IN YOUR FUCKING POCKET MATE
<Storlek> well, what do cops do? :P
<mml> shoot people!

<Storlek> when not shooting, they put their gun... oh wait, in a holster on their waist, not their pocket.
    damn, that is weird
<mml> yes.

<mml> "oh, there's a cop, i see he remembered to bring his gun this morning, good, he's obviously at least
    partly competent"
<mml> "oh, there's a cop, he's got his ... wait, WTF DID HE DO WITH HIS GUN... oh i see, it's in his pocket?!"
<mml> aha
<mml> "I had been in a long search for the most power in the smallest package that I could get into my pocket."
