This question came to mind while viewing another thread requesting recommendations for pocket carry. Not wanting to derail the thread, I thought I would ask this serious question on a new thread.
What are the merits of pocket carry? I understand the weapon is well-concealed, but don’t you lose access when seated?
I carry often -almost always - and I usually have my North American Arms .22 in a pocket in addition to my primary. But I would have to stand or straighten out while sitting to access it.
I am big enough that I could easily get away with an Airweight or even a G26 in my pocket, but I’d have to stand up to retrieve it. For me, that means losing access to my firearm, while seated to watch a movie, go to the theatre, dine out, or drive a vehicle. Am I missing something?
Thanks in advance for your response.
