I also pocket carry.

I think if I was detained (we don't have that law here) I would politely tell the store personal that I have a revolver in my pocket, I would refuse to hand it over to him, but if he wanted to call the police I would temporarily let the officer hold my revolver while they did any legal search they thought was necessary.

Side note: I don't know how those detectors work, always wondered if my revolver would set them off.

I have had the alarms go off and I always walked back into the store and tell the clerk, and offer to show them my receipt for what ever I bought. I've never had one check me any farther, they just normally say "that's OK, don't worry about it, they go off all the time".
