Ill reply to myself, since nobody bit.

If your active, ANY semi with a mag release button in a soft holster in a pocket will RELEASE the mag.

You pull it out and fire it and the mag falls out.

Ahhhh . . . I was wondering where you were headed with that. I thought maybe you were assuming that you were shooting from inside the pocket, and the gun jammed.

I carry a p64 when i need something small, i have a PPK but it has issues, so that is another of my choices. Out of them they feel the same in the pocket but they have the difference between 9x17 or 9x18 aka .380/9mm short vs 9mm mac.... compared to standard 9x19

My number one thing on a carry piece is wanting something sa/da so i can safely carry one in the chamber so i dont need to rack a slide incase i need to pull in a situation where i dont have easy use of both hands.

Interesting, I haven't had that problem. I like to rotate through my carry ammo so every month or two when I hit the pistol range I shoot the mag that I've been carrying in my p365. Never dropped a mag. Smells like burning pocket lint, though.
