Have used Safariland Model 25, Uncle Mikes, and Galco Stukon-U for many handguns over the years. Currently using Safarland 25 for the G42 and G43.

Would like to use the Galco Stukon-U but...can't get past fabric with Glock triggers.

Now I have tried diligently to engage the trigger externally while the Glock is in the holster. Couldn't make it happen.

But still cannot get comfortable with the idea. Thoughts?

Besides a revolver I always felt better with a Kydex pocket holster even with the hammer fired LCP custom and Berreta Pico I carried. My preference was the Aholster pocket holster but, there are others like the Alabama holsters. I really like the Aholster because the outside is less form fitted to the gun and blurs the pistol outline a little better and the pocket hook worked great for me. That is what I would use if I pocketed a G42.

I mainly pocket carry, and I don't carry anything in a fabric holster. I second the idea to get a kydex holster and also recommend either Alabama Holster or Aholster. Both make good quality holsters that aren't too thick and don't have some kind of 'frame' around the edges for lack of a better term.

I carry my Sig P365 in a kydex Alabama holster. Like you I don't care for the fabric pocket holsters and striker fired pistols.

would say no to a soft fabric pocket holster for such light pull and short trigger guns....but that is me.

if i ever contemplated a glock for the pocket, i do have a notion that i would stay with a mika holster as the material is stiff and fully covers the trigger.

Maybe I will stick with the Safariland 25. Hard synthetic inner lining with suede laminate outer covering. Not worth the risk to use the Galco.

Will checkout the Alabama holsters too.

I use a Vedder pocket holster for my LCP, super thin and comfortable.
For my Sig P238 a DeSantis Nemisis.

Mika in soft or Alabama in kydex for me.

This is the first time I am hearing about the Alabama holster.
‘Does it stay in the pocket while drawing?

My p365 in Mika holster has worked well.

Yes. I suppose if you had really huge pockets it might come out, but they would have to be huge.

Check out Hickock45. He uses and shows one often when reviewing small pistols.

It does stay in the pocket when drawing the pistol. They make several different models for the front, back and even cargo pockets.

I don't pocket carry whatsoever. Never had an interest in doing so but I must say that the information that you all are sharing is insightful. I never even heard of "Mika Holsters" until I peeked into this thread. I went to the site and it seems to have some nice items. Thanks for increasing my knowledge. 😎

What's the problem, Glocks have the "Safe Action" triggers, don't they? I don't pocket carry and have concealed an unloaded G-19 in my cargo shorts pocket to see if it fit--it did easily--but I would opt for leather most likely if carrying in that manner.

Planes have ejection seats too. Doesn't mean you want to use one.

I like the Mika for pocket carrying my J-Frame. It smooths out the "golf ball lump" in your pocket from the cylinder. It's easy to remove the holstered gun from my pocket, but I haven't had the holster come out with the revolver on the draw. For my G43 or my P365 SAS, I prefer the Alabama Kydex holster.

Kool! As I mentioned earlier, I'm not really into pocket carrying but I really like the information about it that you and others are sharing in this thread.

It depends.
