Kydex Pocket Holsters?

[ez bake]

I've got Loopers all leather pocket-holster and I have to say its very nice (mine is for a J-frame). I can carry the gun in either my right-front pocket, my back-pocket, or my cargo-pocket should I be doing something that just dictates an empty front/back pocket.

Wouldn't a kydex pocket holster be rough on a blued gun, like an LCP maybe?

The answer to that is pretty much every holster is rough on a blued gun (on a matte finish stainless, you'll also notice polished spots). There's no getting around it if you regularly shoot your guns. Leather does the best job of prolonging the scuff (and personally, I just like leather if its going to be up against me - Kydex tends to dig if it doesn't fit perfectly and there are a lot of different shaped folks out there).

Kydex holsters are really easy to make yourself it you have some time and a oven at your disposal.
