I pocket carry occasionally. When I have been to the range, I find that I am much quicker if I start with my hand in my pocket and on the gun (premise that I know a threat is present) than with normal belt holster carry where I can't rest my hand on the gun without the world knowing. However, pocket carry is much slower than belt holster carry if I have to start with my hands in the same position off the gun, such as in surrender position.

Pocket carry is also much slower for me when seated.
