Ditto, S&W 6 shooter and GP100 use the same speedloader.
I like the Safariland brand speed loaders the best (model J-GL8C fits .357/.38 6-round S&W and GP100). They’re light, durable, have good retention and no twisting required, just push and go. I get them here for under $20: www.911supply.ca

I picked up 5 Safariland speed loaders for mine from Williams Arms in Port Perry a year or two ago. I like them. The long handled ones likely would be better, but I could not find them at the time.
I found that the rubber combat grips did interfere, and I had to modify the upper left side of the grip a fair bit to get the clearance I needed. Not a big deal.
I had been loading DRG 158gr SWC, but they don't work all that well, so I switched to 158 gr DRG Round Nose, flat point. These work very well.

That's interesting as the 19 is a "K" frame and the 586 is an "L" frame and both Safariland and HKS list separate speedloaders for those two frame sizes. The GP100 uses the same loader as the "L" frame. I'm not saying the same speedloader can't be made to work with both frame sizes but it would be far from ideal and make quick reloads for the wrong frame size difficult.

The L frame cylinder is larger than the K frame cylinder and I don’t know of a speedloader that will work with both frame sizes.
586/686 is an L frame and the speedloaders that work with L frame will work with GP100.

I doubt it - the 19 is a K-frame and uses a smaller speed-loader than the L-Frames or the GP100. K-frame from HKS is the 10-A while from Safariland it is the JK2C, The HKS for the 5/686 or the 5/681 is the 586 model while the Safariland is (I believe) JL2C...
ETA - read the whole thread before posting Blake...
the package i have confirmed what dakotamar posted.
What package, the one the loader came in? What brand? Safariland and HKS specifically list different loaders for K frame and L frame (and GP100) guns.
