Front pocket holsters are a lot more comfortable if you sit or ride a lot in a car. I'm sure others will have the opposite opinion. ;D

I agree with the front pocket holster, however, have a Meco rear pocket holster that I carry in the right front pocket; works very well.    :)

 I have been using a rear pocket Recluse for a few months now.
I find it to be very comfortable in all situations.
 You could use it in a front pocket if you wanted. They also make a front pocket one
that has an angled corner as opposed to the square corner on the rear model.

I use it mostly in jeans. The top of the gun will be visible to anyone standing directly behind you but I have not had any problems.

Jim Powell, owner of leatherandstuff.net in Texas makes a killer back pocket holster for the R9S.  Here is a link http://www.leatherandstuff.net/new%20ips%20bph%20006%20(small).jpg

I'm going to try to attach a photo of one of his great back pocket holsters for the R9S, with a mockup of the pistol.

Lisa K. Hedley is the daughter of the legendary R. J. Hedley, who quite literally created the "Rear Pocket Holster" with its full coverage "Anti-Print" panel. She is carrying on R. J.'s legacy with amazing work of which her father would be extraordinarily proud:

 I tried a rear pocket holster for my LSW32 and found that too uncomfortable. I can't imagine even trying the R9 in a rear pocket! That being said I have been told I am afflicted with NAAA (noassatall).
 Also, I think it is better hidden, protected, and drawn from the front pocket.

I too thought the same thing, but the bulk of the Rohrbaugh sits higher in the back pocket so you are actually sitting on less of it than with the seecamp.  Much better IMO.

OP if you are interested I am selling an extra holster for only $45 shipped and you won't have to wait 6 weeks to get it.
