Pocket holster recommendations for KelTec?

This thread could go in the general firearms section also, but it's about a pocket pistol so I posted here.
I've got a nice little KelTec P3AT .380 that I sometimes carry in my front or hip jeans pocket. Pistol shoots fine and no, I'm not budgeted to buying a new pistol right now.
Holster I've used is this nylon soft-side w. a flat padded panel that goes toward the outside, so the gun won't "print" (outline be visible).
Problem is, occasonally from my sitting or standing, pressure will press the mag release button and the mag will pop loose. Not a good idea.
So... suggestions? Like maybe a more solid plastic/nylon holster that won't allow the release button to get pushed? Maybe not a pocket holster but a very easily concealed IWB holster, inexpensive?
Or is there some fix I can make to the pistol, like putting tape over the button? I'm kinda thinking however that this wouldn't help at all and merely transfer the outside pressure.
Ideas, gang? and thanks in advance

I have never carried in my front pocket while wearing jeans so no advise there/

Have read a lot of good things about it.
I would imagine it would be ideal for a little pock rocket.
Awesome! Looking forward to you opinion as always Wambli.
You didn't happen to try the one for the Glock 19 did you?
Should I go ahead and put my order in?

Wambli,
Which Remora holster did you go with? No clip? Reinforced top? Sweat shield?
I want to order, but wasnt sure which.. I was thinking RTF, but was wondering if it is a little bulky at the top.
My current P32 holster doesn't have a tag or name on it, and I can't recall where I got it, but I did get a nice cowhide pocket holster for my PF9 off of eBay. It's held up very nicely after several hot summers.
