I've been considering adding a smaller gun to my carry gun options.
I have a couple pocket holsters that have worked just fine for the guns I've carried this way (G43, Seecamp LWS, S&W442).
I'd prefer to get stuff out of my pockets and onto a belt. Hidden on the belt. Using a lighter and more compact gun is appealing right now as I need to trim down a good bit to allow more comfort for my larger guns in their IWB holsters.
I tried a P938 the other day and was impressed.
Even with only having a 6-round magazine, large hands and much more range time with my G43......I shot it as good if not better than my G43 (that had the extended magazines). The sights, checkering and smooth cycling were very effective in shooting it well. I now want one, lol.
I can see it being a very comfortable gun to carry in a wider range of holsters.
My other IWB holsters for various other guns have 20-25 degrees of cant and are worn behind the hip.
This small gun, though....may not really need as much or any cant. A holster with zero cant could also be used AWIB....as well as anywhere from 3-5 o'clock.
Am I wrong in thinking this ?
I was considering a Zorn Wraith IWB with 0 cant for this gun and it would offer ability to wear in multiple positions and appears to be extremely easy on/off.

I like his "gun ride position tool" ^^^^^ Neat looking interactive graphic that allows for a view of various belt widths, ride heights and cant angle.
I asked him if he'd be able to offer a a raised lip on the outside that would cover the ambi safety.....he said that could be accommodated with no problem on his end.
What say you P938 owners ? Does an easy on/off 0-5 degree canted IWB holster seem advisable for this compact performer ?
I hate holster shopping because of the fear it's going to wind up in a drawer. I'd normally just order a Milt Sparks Criterion or similar for it.....but in this case I'm wanting something even thinner and best able to handle the sweat and humidity
of my fat arse getting into shape....lots of frequent walking and hiking.
This gun will get a lot of carry as I burn off the weight and can better conceal my larger guns as well as offer a high quality compact gun that I shoot better than my other small guns.
Would appreciate your input as well as what you are liking or disliking about your P938 holsters.
