Agree. A sig 938 in a stoner iwb holster is about as comfortable as it gets without sacrificing a tactical advantage (9mm with a single action trigger cocked and locked)

I do like the P938 IN 9mm.

I'm also happy after carrying this for a few days now.

If you are willing to pay for a high quality holster, I believe you could carry a 155mm howitzer.

I carry a 1911 concealed every day, and I am an average size (5'8"). I carry constantly and comfortably and well concealed under casual clothing. If I were wearing a coat, I think I could carry three of four of them, if I felt the need.

I pocket carry a Sig 238 in a DeSantis Super Fly. Mine has the 7 round mags. I could easily carry a 938 and have been looking at them. I want to shoot one first.

The only one that I totally DISLIKED was the flashbang holster. Don't waste your money.

Admittedly I'm a big guy but I can carry a full size Glock 17 IWB with no real problem so I don't see how the Shield is too big. A good quality holster and belt are the key.

If you are looking at it for pocket carry its probably on the large size for that but the same can be said for the Ruger or Kahr single stack subcompacts. It's the trade off for carrying the 9mm. If you want a smaller, more comfortable pocket gun you need to drop to a .380 or even a .32 - .25 cal mouse gun.

Another vote for the P938. This is my pocket setup.

I'm pretty slim and 6ft tall. I don't wear really baggy clothes and so it would need to be one that would stay fairly hidden with any outfit.

I'll check these two guns out. Thanks for the input!

The 238 looks good! Do you carry at 4 o'clock position with this gun?
