MY CONCEAL CARRY 9'S - SINGLE STACK

[lshel]

These are the three single stack 9's that I have for conceal carry. The Kahr PM9(6+1) w/ns is the smallest and most carried. Next are the Springfield XDS 9 and Kahr CW9 both (7+1). The CW9 is a little longer in grip.

I have the XDs in .45 it's a great size for carry too. I prefer to carry it in my Bianchi Minimalist, but have 3 or 4 IWBs I can't grow to love.

 

I'm curious how you carry yours. I see you added that pinky extension. I thought about that too, but didn't want the added height, since that's the hard part to conceal, not the length.  I know it's a pretty small gun and all, but do you find the pinky extension makes it harder to conceal?

I've got the pinky extensions on my MK9 mags; they add about 3/4" and I've had zero concealment issues.
The benefit to ergonomics for shooting is well worth it

On the XDS 9, it feels better in a OWB holster to me. I've tried several IWB and it is harder to draw. I have the pinky extension to give by little finger a resting point instead of hanging below bottom of grip. In timed draw and two shot drills the XDS is the faster combination with OWB holster. The PM9 conceals better and feels better in IWB holster and I have pinky extension on it also. I might have to try XDS9 in IWB holster without the pinky extension to see if it feels/carries better. The PM9 is smaller and lighter than the XDS9.

I have a Sig Sauer P6, it is the best fit for my hands, and conceals better than my Glock 23.
