I don't mind carrying pocket guns that are a bit on the heavy side (my 2" 940 is about as heavy as a true pocket gun can be) so I'm probably in the minority when I say my 64 snub is a viable pocket gun. It DOES fit into a pocket, with or without a pocket holster, though it prints more than the J Frame. The 64 is easier to shoot well, has a somewhat smoother action that will still fire all commercial primers and of course has the extra round. And I find that a K Frame .38 speedloads somewhat quicker than a J Frame .38. All said and done, the 2" K Frame does have some advantages, but the weight will definitely be more of an issue than the size.
