The SIG 238 was my first mouse gun. I had a holster (Pictured)for pocket carry, but never felt comfortable carrying it that way. The SIG 238 was carried locked and Cocked. I mostly carried it when I went walking or riding my bike in a Fanny Pack. The S&W .38 and the Beretta Mini-Cougar was Back up Weapons when I was a LEO. The S&W .38 was carried in a shoulder holster in the Winter time. The Mini- Cougar was almost the same size as my service Firearm the Glock-19. I have from time to time put my .38 in my coat pocket.
