This gun/clip combo is very intriguing but I worry about the retention of the clip...from the pictures I've seen I worry about moving around and the gun shifting constantly, in turn causing printing. Anybody use the thing?

I would like to put a small light on my pf-9 as well.
Anybody recommmend a little torch that's bright but small enough to carry IWB with this clip?
 
I like the design of KT's flash light as stand alone light.

But a clip on a pistol?? Never. Buy a holster that can keep metal off skin and protect a owner from doing something foolish like touching the trigger when its not meant to be touched.

If you wear a hand gun all hours out side your house everyday you will understand the holster part guickly. A PF9 can be pocket carried by most in a wide selection of holster that hide the look and companies like old faithfull hoster kit offers low cost iwb holster than you can also modify for your needs .
 
I have the K-T belt clip on my P3AT. I use it when wearing shorts or pants with unsuitable pockets to carry this pistol. Most the time I just slip the P3AT into a pocket and off I go.
 
Had my PF-9 on my waist almost daily using the belt clip for the last 3 years. I love it. It stays where I put it(right waist) even when hiking, running, sitting and rolling around under a vehicle on a creeper(I'm a mechanic and do wear it all day at work). It also stays put while riding around on my motorcycle and in the car. Never any rust or corrosion. Every week I blow the lint out of it. Can't say anything about the flashlight. I keep that in a different pocket.
 
I don't know, I wouldn't be comfortable using an oversized paperclip to retain my gun. Maybe for a quick walk to the gas station, but I wouldn't trust it to stay put during my day to day activities. I feel like it would twist and turn all day, even if it did stay in the same spot. How're you supposed to find the grip during a draw if it moves back and forth?
 
I've used the IWB clips on my P-32, P3AT's, PF-9, and P-11. Believe me, they don't move around, especially if you're wearing a leather belt.
 
I used to carry a Series 70 Mark IV full size with a belt clip. Mainly because it was easy on and off when getting in and out of vehicles. As I used an appendix carry most of the time I quit using the clip when I changed to a higher visability and taller sharper front sights. It became uncomfortable on occasion......especially when "going Commando"

I actually only clip it to the pants, and not to the belt. The belt tended to stretch the clip too much, making it loosen up over time(first 6 months). After I switched to just the pants in the clip with the belt over the clip( reduces visibility IMO), I have had no problems at all. It is still easy to grab the grip, but still hidden under an untucked t-shirt very well with zero printing. On occasion, someone will mention that I missed the belt with my knife, and I don't tell them it is actually a gun.
