for sh*ts and giggles I decided to see if my usp45c fit in my nemesis holster that I use for my P2000sk when I pocket carry since the holster size was actually for the p2000. Sure enough it fits like a glove and fits quite nicely in my pocket. I know the uspc 45 is bigger than my ps2000sk .40, but I have to say it doesnt feel any bigger or heavier in my pocket.
Im actually thinking of selling the sk because I think it has been replaced.
Anyway, just wondering if anyone else has tried this.
BTW, I wear jeans for work and play and my wrangler relaxed boot cut jeans fits both guns perfectly (I know someone will ask).
I am thin, it doesn't feel or look right to me in the pocket. Actually I am so damn skinny this USPc is going to need some kind of IWB holster I guess.
Like you, it would be great to see if anyone is pocket-carrying with success. Put the holster money towards extra mags or something.

You should use a pocket holster, it'll make sure you can draw it quickly without shooting your own leg or something if the trigger get caught with whatever in your pocket.

You don't need an IWB holster, AWD. You need a sandwich. ;)

sparks vmII, Ive never found a better IWB, although some would argue Comp-Tac has a few.

I am thinking of getting a C. For the fun of it I put my Tac in the Velcro pocket of my 5.11's. It barely fits, but sags. Am looking at other tactical pants/shorts that have internal pockets to the Velcro ones so a C would hang from the pant leg rather than sagging the pocket.
Will try to demo it at the gun store this weekend....

JL, are you carrying that in a front pocket or rear pocket and how big are you? I'm 5'9" 165lbs w/ a 31inch waist and I'm not sure I could make a pocket carry work. I'm trying to sort out how to make an IWB work even.
