I agree that it's like a PPK as far as size goes. I'd go so far as to say it's a smidge smaller. That doesn't make it a pocket pistol. I don't know what pockets you mean, but with the clothes I wear, it wouldn't be easy to conceal well. It might fit in the pocket of this one jacket I have, but if I'm wearing jeans and a jacket I'd rather have the thing in a holster so I don't have to worry about a snag as much.
To me, a pocket pistol is something you can drop in your pocket and forget about. The Mak has some weight to it and a little size too, not much, but a little more than I'd be willing to stuff in a pocket. Things like the old Colt 1908 VP and the modern Kel-Tecs are pocket pistols, PPKs and Maks are just highly concealable compacts.
