   I bought a couple of cheaper ones early on but they wouldn't clear the Crimson Trace grips so I sold them.

  These always looked good to me and the reviews for them are the highest out there! Reports say they will also work with a Crimson Trace grip too  8)

    I'm thinking about getting one of the loading plate setups to go with it. The Range plate kind of makes more sense than the bedside although it can be a Range piece too.

Those do look nice
Yes, I only have HKS and yes, they do have issues with some Aftermarket Grips
So tell me again how Trump was worse then the 8 years before .... AND what came after HIM !

I've heard good things about those but have never used them. I use the S.L. Variant's (they are fast) with my M&P 340 in the winter and i carry a couple of speed strips in a belt pouch in the summer.

 I ordered .357 Magnum and .44 Magnum which should be here this week. When they arrive I will post some pictures of them plus do a video of the GP100 with the CT grips. They seem top notch from reviews and appearance.

The 5-Star loaders should be here tomorrow if the tracker is correct.

   I did get my first one today though from Speed Beez. This is for the Taurus 992 which easily changes cylinders from .22LR to .22WMR with a push-button. Due to cost I don't shoot enough of the .22WMR to justify a loader and opted for the .22LR. It works awesome!








The loading block is a must for 72 rounds of fun. It works awesome and is very easy to use.

I do liken those Bench / Load Blocks
I've thought about making one for each of my Loaders

I'm not a video maker, nor do I have a mid-size stand for this but...

  I haven't owned a Safariland to compare but tend to agree  8)
