Motorcycle Carry / Pocket Carry
This past weekend had a little motorcycle get-a-way to Pensacola Beach, Florida. I've seen posts asking about motorcycle carry and pocket carry - well, this was both.
All weekend I pocked carried on the bike and walking around. I had a Taurus PT145 in front right pocket and a Smith & Wesson MD: 642 .38 special revolver in back right pocket. Just two pics to show - family was wondering "Why does he want a picture of himself looking away - why the picture of his backside?" Here ya go. I hope the link works.

Cool. My favorite view of the world is from the seat of my Harley.

Wow a PT145 in your front pocket? That's a big pocket! What holster were you using?

Ah man I see that you were at Flounders! One of my favorite restaurants while I was stationed there. Since you were carrying I assume youdidn't have the chance to try the Diesel Fuel out of the mason jar. Hope you had a good time and with the pocket carry.

"Nothin' to see here, folks!"
Conceals pretty well. I bet the family did have questions about you and your "best angle"!

IMO, the PT145 concealed better than the 642. I couldn't even tell you had a pistol in your front right pocket.

![]() ![]() I carry my Glock-36 on my Harley in its regular holster...never a problem. It's either an IWB at 3:30, one at 5:00, or an OWB at 3:30...all work quite well. Note: Looks like a great place to visit...nice beach. ![]()

ArmyCop,
I carried my PT-145 for years in my right front pocket, and all I heard was "its too big for pocket carry". I was never "made" by anyone.....or at least told I was "made". It was very comforting having that gun there. I could not however wear it in my dress pants at the office, so I went to the KelTec PF9 in 9mm and slid the PT-145 into a storage panel in the dash of my car. It and a spare mag fit there perfectly. If I am wearing my jeans or cargo shorts, the PT still finds itself in my pocket. I also carry it to back up my 1911 when it is carried. I still carry it IWB from time to time and still love to shoot it. Seeing you carry lets me know I am not the only one doing so. tex45acp
