I purchased this fanny pack over 25 years ago for $18 new. If you can find it it's usually over $100. It's been an excellent fanny pack and saw a lot of use over the years. Haven't really used it in years but I had my son put my G45 and a spare mag in it as a carry option. Has a rip cord to quickly open it.

I have the LCP 2 and P365 as well.

So at least I have several options available to me
A man cannot call himself peaceful if he is not capable of violence. If he's not capable of violence he isn't peaceful, he is harmless. There is a distinct difference.

Appointment with the hand/wrist specialist next Thursday to see if I'll need surgery or not.

I was pleasantly surprised today. We had a pre-drywall walk-thru with our builder today. First time out of the house since the injury. Decided to try pocket carrying my P365 w/12-round mag in a Sticky Holster and it went well. Filled up the pocket of my cargo shorts more than my LCP 2 of course but was comfortable and doable. Very happy about this. I was able to draw the pistol easily. Had to switch my spare mag to the other side but no issue there either. Very positive experience all the way around.

Went over to families for dinner with the P365 in the pocket. As above, pleasantly surprised it was as comfortable as it was. Not as much as the LCP of course, but very doable. At least with this pair of cargo shorts. Will experiment with others. At least now I know I have options.

I had thought about the LCP Max, and it's still a possibility but not something that I urgently need.

Along with my post about having a WML on an EDC I decided to modify the Sticky Holster so that it fits my P365 with the TLR-6. I can't physically hold a flashlight in my support hand right now, so a WML is my only/best option.

I was successful with modifying the Sticky Holster to allow the P365 w/TLR-6 to fit. Just had to remove some of the stitching on the inside.

Intraarticular fracture of left distal radius with impaction and dorsal displacement. That's the official diagnosis. Surgery scheduled for next Wednesday.
