Is the P365 small enough to be a pocket pistol

[Duckyou]

Hello all!

is the P365 small enough to be a front pocket or back pocket pistol?

I carry a P3AT in my back pocket now. Looking to upgrade to 9mm.

10rd mag, yes.

I carry my P365 in jeans front pocket with 10 round mag...I find the 12 protrudes a bit too much for my liking.

It ain't the 12rd mag. Lol.
I've done it in loose jeans. Put it in shorts pockets on the way to the truck and stick it in the console.
Sure you can do it, but it's not for me.
12rd mag is real heavy in shorts. Just those few ounces make a huge difference.
I carry 4 o'clock iwb

I wear Dickies style uniform pants 40 hours a week and pocket carry mine with the 10 round mag. I shoot it much better than my Bodyguard and Keltec p3at

I carry my P365 in my right pocket every day of the week, most all times I go out, using a DeSantis Gunhide Nemesis holster. It’s no larger than the average iPhone, and the shape is very well diffused even with the pinky extension on a 10 round mag, although I keep the pinky extension off just to reduce any poke. DeSantis has a Nemesis model made specifically for the P365, but most find it too large, including myself. This is the model I use, and it fits absolutely perfect, completely flush with fantastic retention within the pocket, but not too much as to get stuck.

I went on a search for a good while trying to find the ideal pocket pistol for my first carry gun, and while I’m far from any sort of expert, I found that the 10+1 round capability of the P365 and the overall reduced form factor made it ideal, with the Glock 43X as a close second, exclusively because it lacks a thumb safety. (Just a personal preference) The thinness of the P365 is also a selling factor for me as well, making for easy concealment in any position without much printing, if any at all.

If you end up choosing the P365, here is a link to the exact holster I bought and use daily. Hope it helps!:

That Amazon link says it's for Ruger lcp. That holster seems small for a 365. The picture on right looks exactly like the picture I took of my p365.

The picture on the right is quite literally my P365 (prior to it's cerakoting) in the exact holster I linked. As I mentioned, the Nemesis holster for the P365 is slightly too large, and the one I linked is ideal for the P365 as shown, and as described in the reviews of the product. Check the review images as well.

If I can pocket carry a s&w 442, you oughta be able to do a p365. Depends on pocket size and a good holster, that COVERS the trigger guard.

The Amazon link I click on says it's for Ruger lcp and Taurus tcp.
The holster you pictured would swallow a lcp. I'm just confused.

I got the P365 but traded it for the P365xl. I'm a glock fan boi big time, but the P365xl is bad ass. The P365 was a game changer for sure!
