My Sig P238 slides down in the holster to where the barrel sticks out a good half inch in my pocket. Is this typical? Are they a one size fits all?

Steve, That seems odd to me. I have been carrying an airweight revolver in the holster for over a year now and the barrel does not come through. This has been in my jeans every single day and the holster looks brand new. I also have a P238 in the DeSantis holster and while I rarely carry it, the barrel does not stick out. It sounds like you do have the wrong size for the P238 because these are excellent holsters. Did you carry a larger weapon in the holster before?

No there something wrong with holster. I have never had that problem. The are different size holsters

It sounds like you got the wrong size holster. It should fit snug and the barrel should not stick through.
1244691
My combination doesn't do that. Double check your model number on the DeSantis.

Not the case for me. I have the equinox edition, though. It comes with a Truglo Brite Site fiber optic/night hybrid that sits kind of high and is longer than most night sights. I ended up not using my desantis pocket holster after a while since its thickness actually seemed to take away the main asset of the gun in concealability and started using a kydex pocket holster made by Raven Concealment. http://raven-concealment-systems.mybigcommerce.com/pocket-holsters/Hope this helps

No, the barrel on my Sig does not stick out the end of the holster. Are you sure they sent you the right holster.? Mine fits very snug.You may need to have them send you a new one.

I inserted my P220 w/threaded barrel in holster, and it will go in, but very tight and would be hard to get out. I suppose you could cut the hole at bottom a little bigger for barrel to stick through, but as is, I would probably not recommend it. I carry the P220 without the threaded barrel in the holster when I am wearing a jacket, and it is a perfect fit.

Yes. You are perfectly safe to carry in your pocket with this holster. Plus the p238 has an external safety so between that and the trigger coverage you are fine to carry cocked and locked. Don't get the super fly version. It's to bulky and useless. The nemasis is perfect

No, not at all. And actually, I also have a pocket holster made by Tagua that I sometimes carry down in my pocket, and it fits well inside that with the clip attatched.

My 3.5" fits fully & snuggly into the holster.....The 4" barrel might stick out over the top, making it unable to close properly...IMHO

Yes - I use an in pocket holster - works great in side pocket - I also sometimes use LCP in front pocket

It will be tight and small..I had to use my springfield xdm compact 40s&w.; 3.8 inch barrel. Because my 1911 or my 45 acp was too big...the holster is made of good quality but they made holster small..i had to break it in for about a week before it took shape and fitted well after. It's a great idea and I put a nice 320 lumen tactical flashlight (surefire) in the flashlight holder. It serves it's purpose but no way does it fit ALL handguns. I hope this helps. ..I like it and I would recommend

I keep a ruger LCP in there and it's pretty tight without much wiggle room. Even a slim frame 9mm might be too big. The picture here is deceiving the holster only fits the LCP up to the trigger guard.

The bottom of the holster is open and should accommodate the longer barrel without alteration. Its not a huge opening, but sizable.

I'm not sure how big that model is compared to my "XD-M&P; Tactical" but if it's the same exterior slide width you will need to file down the ledge on the muzzle end of the holster to allow it to pass through. I did with mine and the barrel passes through seamlessly.

Not at all. It is actually one of the best holsters i have ever owned. I have 1 for my pt140 and pt145. They're even better when broken in.

My SW airwieght .38 fits perfect snug when pulled from pocket ; the top of the pocket strips holster from gun easily and smooth

I have a Full Size M&P 45 and it fits just fine. About a mm or two of the slide stick out the end but not noticeable.

I have a Sig SP2022 9mm and I got a size 6. At first it was snug, I have it in this holster 24/7, and now it fits perfect. It just took some time to stretch out to it.

the full size 1911 fits nice and locks in the holster, there is a screw on the side of the holster you can tighten or losin the fit of the gun in the holster. The only problem I have is it marked up the finish on my slide.

It is the pistol frame size. These were patterned after Old West holsters. Weapons were not quite as thick as today. Keep working the leather you might get it to fit though.

This holster locks around the trigger well. I don't see why the length of the barrel matters. I had a sub compact Glock once. The holster i bought for it was the same as the compact and full size. It just didn't fill the holster.
