Braden,
I've got a Glock 27, and love to shoot it. I have on occassion tried putting it in a blue jeans pocket and it worked okay. Looser pockets like dress pants seems would do well.
One suggestion, the butt is so short your pinky might hang off the bottom, and it's suprising how much control you LOSE. You might want to look into mag extensions (there are some with an extra round capacity and some without) which correct that problem.
Besides the G22 mags, it will also accept a 29 round magazine ... looks funny but feels like you can shoot all day!

I have actually owned a G27 in the past and you're right...my pinky did hang off the end. I put some of the Pearce grip extensions on it, but I never did really like the recoil (which is why I got rid of it). That said, if I had known at the time I was going to buy the G22 I carry now (and love), I would have kept it simply because the two go so well together.

I was accurate with the G27. It just wasn't a very pleasant gun to shoot. When I have the money I'll probably buy another one.
