Speedy Ammo Loads for Pistol-Type Firearms
In recent times, browning revolvers have seen a resurgence in popularity, thanks to their real-world reliability. One essential accessory that has contributed to this revival is the speedloader. A Japanese manufacturer is currently producing a copy of the S.L. Variant speedloader, which is imported by KazTac (kaztac.com).
The original S.L. Variant speedloader, made in Germany, is either out of production or no longer being imported. However, the JetLoader, a spring-loaded speedloader made for S&W J-, K-, and L-frame revolvers in .38/.357, is filling the gap.
Carrying spare ammo and reloading skills are more critical with revolvers, given their limited ammunition capacity of five or six rounds. Using speedloaders is the quickest way to reload a revolver, making them an invaluable tool for those who own these firearms.
Speedloaders are uniformly larger than gravity-feed loaders due to the springs/knobs used. They can be broken into three categories: gravity loaders, manually pressured loaders, and mechanically pushed loaders. The mechanical push provided by speedloaders is beneficial, especially if the revolver's cylinder isn't vertical when the load is performed.
The Universal Method is a technique for reloading revolvers with speedloaders, which allows the shooting hand to do the actual loading while the support hand holds the gun. For maximum concealment, look for pouches that orient half of the cartridges behind the belt and half in front. Simpl Rugged Holsters (simplyrugged.com) recently released an innovative pouch dubbed the Sidewinder that securely holds speedloaders horizontally above the belt.
It's a good idea to carry a speedloader in a dedicated pouch for defensive purposes. Revolvers are more resistant to external factors and don't require a proper firing grip like semi-automatics. The revolver's heavier double-action trigger provides an extra margin of safety in stressful conditions.
Loading a revolver cylinder with a speedloader is a more complex motor skill than loading a self-loader. However, it's a skill worth mastering, as it significantly reduces the time spent reloading in critical situations. Loading single loose rounds from a pocket or dump pouch is the slowest and most challenging way to reload a revolver.
The leading manufacturers of speedloaders for revolvers in Germany are typically companies like HKS, Safariland, and Nitehawk, known for their high-quality firearm accessories. These companies ensure that their speedloaders are of the highest quality, providing users with reliable and efficient reloading solutions.
In conclusion, speedloaders are an essential accessory for revolver owners, offering quick and efficient reloading solutions. With the resurgence of revolvers, it's clear that these tools will continue to play a crucial role in the world of firearms.
