    I'm assuming a Kahr MK9 is a "pocket" pistol, even though I usually don't carry it that way. (It's definitely smaller than the Glock/XD subcompacts, but bigger than the pocket pistols listed....)

    I counted my Kahr MK9 as subcompact rather than pocket... to me, pocket means .380 Ruger LCP or NA Arms Guardian or smaller calibre (and even some .380s are closer to being subcompact).

    yeah, thats what I was thinking.
    I thought at first I should have made it by barrel length.

    I CC two guns. First is my P3AT in my front pocket. Thus a pocket gun. Second is an XD40 Service Model. So I voted for service as well.

    Either that or let's just agree that "pocket" means it can be carried, sans holster, during the summer wearing "regular" clothing and not be detected except for printing in real tight clothes.

    Depends on how I'm dressing for the day, where I'm going, what I'm doing, etc.

    Might be a 45 Auto (Gov't Model), S&W 5906, Taurus PT745, Ruger SP101 (2 1/4 bbl), CZ74SP01.

    I carry a MK9 in the front pocket. So, I checked "pocket pistol", even though it has a bit more punch than the average pocket pistol chambered in .32 or .380.
