I am not comfortable carrying a pistol with potential energy stored in the firing mechanism. Hence, for me, DA/SA revolvers or DA/SA semi-autos are the order of the day where it requires a trigger pull to "cock" the hammer to fire the gun.
For pocket carry, I'd use a S&W J frame or maybe something like a Kel Tec P-32 or a P3AT.
There may be other guns that fit my specifications, but I have not investigated them yet so do not take my choices to be the "be all to end all".
I'm open to alternate options, but I'll tell you up front that Glocks ain't it.
FYI, my "fuller sized" carry gun used to be a Walther PPK. I recently upgraded to an H&K P30SK.
I Hear ya, and I do not want a short light crisp trigger. I have no problem with a longer, heavier double action. Simply do not want one, or NEED on. Personally I believe it is all about frequent training. Look at the snubbie. You hear comments all the time that they are hard to shoot. Actually they are easy to shoot, just takes time to learn them. I also believe that all of these small pocket guns should not be for beginners. The internet is fond of saying they are not range guns. Well they should be. Mine are all range guns to me.
