I know Sam made both five and six round pocket frame .31's. Did he ever offer the .36 pocket with a six round cylinder? I have never seen one and don't think they where offered, but I'm just curious. I was surprised the first time I saw a six round .31 Baby pocket.
 
Not that I'm aware of. Haven & Belden's book only says that the Pocket Police and Pocket Navy came with a 5 shot cylinder for both the C&B and Cartridge conversions.

According to "COLT SINGLE ACTION" by Dennis Alder (pg.71) the Colt pockets were 5 shot and then in 1861 they became available as 6 shot revolvers. The Colt Pocket was the best selling of all the Colt pistols and was in production for 30 years in one form or another including cartridge guns.
