A couple of questions. First, isn't a pocket a dangerous place to carry a pistol? If I were to carry I would prefer a holster at the small of my back tucked inside my waistband. I have read and heard that a disproportionate number of cops end up shooting themselves when they take illegal guns from suspects because they don't have a safe place to put them while they complete the arrest, so they just stuff them in their pockets or waistbands. And that the most common injuries are to the, um, most vulnerable part of the anatomy in the area of a pocket or waistband.

Second, is there anything to the claim that Walther PPKs are prone to jamming? I remember the story about how the British Secret Service used that as their primary handgun until one jammed on the guy who was supposed to protect the Queen and I think it was Princess Margaret, back in the 1970s when some guy in the park kidnapped them. After that incident they were removed from service and Bond had to change handguns in the next several movies.
