I miss my EC9. I traded it in on the LCP Max 380. I ended up buying a Canik TP9 SF compact, too so I had a few compact options but the EC9 was a very capable pistol, especially with the +1 magazine.
The Ruger holster and those like it are fine for awhile but eventually they lose their shape. The Nemisis has worked better for me in this respect but it is considerably thicker. I suppose it depends on the person as to which is best for them. Either is faily inexpensive so they can be replaced when necessary.
Great video. I'd be a little scared my pocket would have some loose threading that has a loop on it that might get down in that trigger and pull it somehow, but then again it would probably never happen lol
Very thorough review; thanks! I want the entire trigger guard covered, and something firmer than the included Ruger holster. Was considering the Nemesis but the trigger cut is a deal breaker for me, even though I never carry anything else in the same pocket. Might get an Alabama pocket holster.
For not much more, you can get their SuperFly pocket holster. I've been useing one with my J-frame sized revolvers for about 10 years now. Definitely a worthwhile upgrade from the nemesis.
I have the Superfly for my lcp but don't use it anymore. Not enough retention. My gun fell out in a public restroom when I dropped trou and sat down. I then started taking it out and sitting it on the toilet tank before dropping off the Duke boys. I could see my dumbass walking off without my gun. So now I use a Hunter molded leather holster. Gun stays put even when my pants are down to my ankles.
FYI I had a nemesis lying around that’s for a CW9, fits the LCP max pretty damn good might be worth a try, it covers the trigger guard completely as well as mag release. Probably not quite as snug on the gun but seems like a non issue so far. Model is N38 MK.
I carry my lcp2 in one of these in my pocket. I typically wear cut off jeans with a muscle shirt in hot sticky steamy florida and it works for me. been using it since i bought the lcp2 when it came out. somewhere around 5 or 6 years now. my gun has never come out of my holster. but then if the gun was simply in my tight jean pocket by itself it would fall out either.
You don’t carry with one in the chamber? I hope you never get caught in a situation where you have to pull you back up and have to take time to rack it. Never put anything else in the same pocket, keys, knife, flash light, etc.
Yeah usually it's all in your head nobody gonna say oh yeah he got a gun I'm 💯% positive, they gonna think it's some type of phone or pad & keep it moving
I have the Ruger EC9. I use a pocket holster in scenarios where I can not carry IWB; the DeSantis pocket holster is THE best.

I love this little holster, mine is about 6 years old. What I like best is how many different pistols you can carry in it. Great video!!
Thanks for watching!
DeSantis Nemesis holster works great. After 4 years of use it's still in good shape. I use it for the Ruger LCP.
This is good to know!
Great holster! Been carrying an M&P Shield .9mm in one for about 8 years now.
Right on!
Thank you! Great affordable holsters! Have several.
Thanks for watching!
I’ve carried my old LCP in a DeSantis pocket holster for about 10 years and it’s still in great shape.
@@oldcop18 very cool man very cool
Very thorough explanation of your decision and things for a potential buyer to keep in mind.
Thanks, man!
Looks like a sweet holster, thanks for sharing
I’ve been pretty happy with it so far! Thanks for watching!
I'd say it was definitely time for a new holster, that would make me nervous too.
I had to double check but I may still call DeSantis to suggest an LCP Max version with more trigger guard coverage.

I agree. Thank you for watching!
I have the DeSantis Nemesis for my P238. I love it !

I hear ya. I had my reservations initially but so far no issues. I am careful to be sure nothing else is in the holster.
Very thorough review; thanks!

I like the DeSantis but I’m open to other brands.

I will look into one!

FYI Remora Holsters makes a great pocket holster as well and they cover the entire trigger guard.
I use them for my LCP Max and Max 9.
In need to try one!
Remora is what I use also.

sold.... I just ordered this from amazon
@@january575 right on! I am still using mine!
G3? Does it magically mod it into a German 20 shot .308?
Nope!

@@rickfouser1848 I always carry with one in the chamber.
I don't like that the DeSantis is open at the barrel, dust bunnies will invade.
I agree!

Yup
