A blast from the past or good info if you are thinking about having a revolver.
And Safariland speedloaders are great, I can confirm.

I have speed loaders for both of my revolvers. I use HKS brand. I like the way they work. I’ve been using them since the early 80’s when we had combat competitions in the small town I lived in in Texas. Most of the guys used revolvers.
1) It’s amazing that we used to issue to police Revolvers which today have an $850 MSRP. (Just think about how many Colt Pythons were beat to death by Sheriff Deputies.)
2) I’ll back up Robert on the HKS brand speedloader. They were always cheaper and less finicky. Just in and twist.
Economies of scale are a magical thing. Just think how (relatively) expensive Glocks were before they became the standard issue sidearm of nearly every police department in the country.
Personally, I believe every ‘Murrican should own at least one S&W K-Frame.
As for speedloaders, I’m a Safariland fan.
