Pager Pal

[norfdet]

If I could find mine it would be worth sending it around to everyone that thought they wanted one so they could try before they buy. The gentleman's agreement would be that when they were done they would be that they would have to send it to the next person who wanted one so they could try it for themselves. It would be interesting to see how many people it would reach and what their opinions were. Now if I could just find it.

norfdet,

Maybe I should look for mine and just send it to Bane.  That should really get us covered.   Mike, you game?  He can then send mine off to our friend matthew if we have not managed to disuade him yet.  How many of us has he persuaded to look into LaserGrips, just imagine.  Unfortunately, no LaserGrips for my Keltec P3AT, not sure how they would add them anyway!   

Just as an aside.  I carry in an RJ Hedlely holster http://hedleyholsters.com/ and really love it I use the Right handed back pocket holster although I tend to carry it in the front pocket but with nice dress slacks it really allows almost no printing.  Not to mention RJ was very nice.  Just to throw another idea out there.

Hope this helps,
-Jose

Speaking of endorsements, I ordered my Mika Pocket holster tonight. He has already sent an acknowledgment and it should be here in about 10 days. Now that is service and solely from recommendations from this site.

Hi norfdet,

Mr. Mika is wonderful to deal with and he will keep you updated with e mails regarding when your holster will be ready to ship as well as when it ships.  So did you go for the rounded or square version pocket holster?

Regards

My dad, a friend of mine and  all tried out a Pager Pal. It was uncomfortable with a medium size gun like the GLOCK 30, Beretta 9000S, Republic Arms Patriot, Kimber Ultra Carry, or AMT Backup 45. Particularly while sitting. I use the Smartcarry at least once a week, and don't have any problems with it.

I don't think I will shell out $50 for a pager pal after reading your reviews. For that and what it's worth, thanks!

With a gun Walther PPK or Kel-Tec 32/380 size, It may work wonders. But Back in the first days of TX Condcealed carry, he tried one with his AMT Backup 45, and later his Kimber Ultra Carry, with instant dislike for it because it's Terribly uncomfortable. The gun digs into you. Sometimes the holster does, too. When My friend and I turned legal age, we wanted to get our CHL's. My friend's dad and the rest of us were at a gun show, and they were looking at Pager Pals. My dad told him before he bought one for his Beretta, he'd let him try the one he doesn't use, and if he liked it he'd sell it to him for $25. Well, he didn't like it. If you're gonna Go with a holster like that, I reccomend the Smartcarry. My G30 conceals PERFECTLY with the smartcarry..... Given the Pants aren't too tight, that is. This is just a friendly bit of advice from a guy wh's used them.

Thanks to your recommendations I ordered and promptly received a Mika Poket holster for my 642. Works as expected and can reholster easily.
The thing that suprised me was unlike my FIST or Kydac pocket holsters, both of which work OK,  you do not have to push on anything  to get the gun to come out of the holster smoothly. You do not need to adjust your grip. It really doesn't want to move once it's in your pocket.

Thanks again

  Glad I can contribute something of value to the community! I actually was surprised this week over on www.glocktalk.com because I found a post on there where somebody was ACTUALLY A SATISFIED PAGERPAL CUSTOMER! He used it with a Taurus model 85. Another thing about that holster, Who wears a stinkin pager anymore? and who EVER wore them on the front of their pants?? Good to hear about the Mika Holster. I may buy that one when I get my S&W 649 for pocket carry.
