Smith and Wesson K Frame Speed Loaders For Colt

[Sharps '74]

Got my hands good and cold loading 6 individual rds into my .38 Spl. Colt Officer Model match today so I tried S&W Safariland 'K' frame loaders and they worked! There's a little bit of a hang up with the chamber closest to the frame, but it works well enough for target shooting and plinking.

I has already proved that "L" frame speedloaders do not work, so it came as a surprise.

I use these on my GP100; I switched from LSWC bullets to RNFP cast lead, and the hangup issue is gone. I think any round nose would work much better.
