Yeah, get under the truck and see if you have a cracked cv boot... if so, it's a cv joint.

Mine did the same thing and it was a loose upper control arm! :eek7:
Took a lot of moving the front end with a jack to figure it out.

I have a 1995 K1500 and a pop developed today. I only get the pop when the gas is applied. It does not pop in neutral or an idle. The noise gets worse when turning. I have checked to see if any thing is visually wrong but am hoping someone can help.

check your cv boots for cracks, and when was the last time you changed the u-joints?
