I've had a 649-3 since 1998 and have pocket carried many times. However, I feel that firing it from a trouser pocket would be rather difficult. Not because the hammer will hang up, but because it pretty much fills up my pocket and there's not a lot of maneuver room. On the other hand IMO it is a perfect jacket pocket gun. Much more room to maneuver and point. It works especially well in the inside pocket of my Levis brand denim jacket.
