Pocket holster needed ruger lcp

I just pick up today the ruger LCP while at the gun shop I tried the black hawk pocket holster but with my Jeans the gun did print a little.
I like to ask any one have or know of a pocket holster a little thinner then the nylon black hawk

Thinner isn't what you need, it's larger pants pockets.

You're always going to be able to tell there is something in your pocket, don't sweat it nobody will know it's a gun.

+3 DeSantis Nemesis here. Thin, nice grippy exterior and easy to grab the LCP. My only complaint is a tag on the inside which can snag on the ejection port, but easy enough to cut out.

Look at post #4 in this thread. I'd suggest one of his holsters. I've got a couple (even one for my LCP) and have been very pleased with both the holster itself and service.

Hunter makes a back pocket holster with an extra leather flap that makes it look like a wallet when in the pocket.

With tight pants, or small pockets, no matter the holster the gun will print a bit. Keep in mind that a holster won't make the gun disappear, but it will break up the outline of the gun.

I use an Uncle Mikes # 2 holster and it works very well but the DeSantis is a good choice as well.

DeSantis Nemesis. It's cheap and it works.
