In 1977 a seasoned LEO by the name of Steve Chaney and a rookie named Linda Lawrence responded to a call regarding a possible burglary in progress. Rather than a burglar, they found the soon-to-be-ex-boyfriend of the homeowner hiding in her bedroom. The boyfriend, John James Mullery, was awaiting his girlfriend\u2019s return so he could kill her. Instead, he ended up facing off with two police officers.<\/p>\n

During the ensuing struggle, Lawrence managed to get off a shot that mangled one of Mullery\u2019s arms before he wrested her gun from her and shot her with it. Chaney\u2019s fight then stretched out seemingly forever. His Smith & Wesson Model 64 immediately became the focus of the enraged Mullery\u2013who was high on PCP and cocaine\u2013and was soon emptied. Two bullets had entered a nearby wall when Chaney deflected Mullery\u2019s attempt to shoot him with his own gun, two had been fired point-blank into the attacker\u2019s chest by Chaney, and Chaney had purposefully fired another into Mullery\u2019s ribcage. Prior to the rib shot Chaney had fired a round into the ground.<\/p>\n

\"Safariland<\/a>

If you own a revolver you should also own a speedloader or speed strips \u2013 or both.<\/p><\/div>\n

This is where relevancy becomes clear. In 1977 revolvers were, of course, standard-issue among law enforcement, but did not come with speedloaders. Dump pouches were woefully inadequate, as were pockets, but that\u2019s what the majority of officers had available. It meant reloading under duress was an ordeal. It meant death over survival in some cases. This time, though, the officer in question had come prepared: Steve Chaney had a personal speedloader. It was a Dade speedloader he\u2019d purchased for himself for use on the job and it became the speedloader that saved his life. As Chaney reloaded, Mullery stabbed him in the back and beat him with a tire iron. Chaney turned around, gun loaded and took the shots that would end the battle.<\/p>\n

Speedloaders<\/h3>\n

Speedloaders have been around in one form or another for more than a century. When you\u2019re at the range you can reload at your leisure but if you\u2019re in a fight for your life\u2013or at a competition\u2013you\u2019ll need one (or more). The Safariland Comp II Speedloader is injection molded for a precise fit and features a circular knob on the back for gripping during reloading. It also has a coil spring locking mechanism to keep your cartridges secure.<\/p>\n

\"Safariland<\/a>

The Safariland Comp II Speedloader for .38\/.357 revolvers.<\/p><\/div>\n

Using either the Comp I, II, or III Speedloader is simple: load cartridges into the speedloader, put the rounds nose-down on a flat surface, and simultaneously push down and rotate the knob clockwise. You\u2019ll hear the \u201cclick\u201d of the cartridges being locked into place. To load your revolver, line up the cartridges with the chambers of the cylinder and push until you meet slight resistance. At this point further pressure will engage the plastic star on the face of the speedloader so it releases the cartridges, allowing you to load your gun.<\/p>\n

\"Safariland<\/a>

The Safariland Comp II Speedloader has a coil spring locking mechanism to hold cartridges in place.<\/p><\/div>\n

Unlike some speedloaders, the Safariland Comp line is well-designed for speed and efficiency. Safariland\u2019s require only a single motion to be used; many other brands require the shooter to execute multiple movements, taking more time and thought. With the Safariland line of speedloaders, you can reload without taking your eyes off the target.<\/p>\n

\"Safariland<\/a>

Unlike some speedloaders the Comp II Speedloader only requires a single motion to use it.<\/p><\/div>\n

The knobs on the Comp speedloaders are different sizes with each numbered design featuring a larger knob: I and II are good for self-defense use while III has an extended knob ideal for competition. The I is the only model available for five-shot .38 Special revolvers, the II comes in four sizes including for Colt, Ruger, and Smith & Wesson, and the III is offered in two sizes for K and L-frames. Some revolvers will need custom grips to work well with these speedloaders.<\/p>\n

Speed Strips<\/h3>\n

Speed strips are another option for revolvers. Bianchi, which is one of the Safariland Group\u2019s brands, offers a line of speed strips. John Bianchi designed the speed strips five decades ago and today they remain a fantastic, slim reloading method for revolvers.<\/p>\n

\"Safariland<\/a>

Bianchi Speed Strips are great for revolvers with grips that make cylindrical speedloaders impossible to use or in cases when you need to conceal a speed strip in your pocket.<\/p><\/div>\n

Bianchi Speed Strips are what they sound like: flat, flexible, urethane strips with a six-cartridge capacity. There is an additional, textured tab approximately one inch in length behind the part of the strip meant for cartridges designed so the shooter can grip it to reload. They\u2019re offered for .38\/.357 or .44\/.45. Speed strips allow shooters to load two rounds at a time and can also be used for tactical reloads when only a few chambers are empty.\u00a0 <\/span>Because they\u2019re flat they create less bulk than cylindrical speedloaders; some revolver owners prefer them because they fit more easily in their pockets. Bianchi Speed Strips can also be used in cases where a revolver does not accept a speedloader and the owner cannot or prefers not to alter it the gun. Tip: leaving the sixth space empty on a speed strip sometimes facilitates easier reloads.<\/p>\n

\"Safariland<\/a>

The speed strips made by Bianchi have an additional, textured tab at one end to make using them simpler.<\/p><\/div>\n

Safariland also offers a variety of holders for their speedloaders. For those who prefer leather pouches there\u2019s the Safariland 371 Split-Six Leather Speedloader Pouch; for fans of metal clips, there\u2019s the Safariland Speedloader Holder. There are single, double, and triple holders available. In addition, they have the Speedloader Loading Block which can be filled with 84 cartridges for a total capacity of fourteen Safariland speedloaders. The block is useful for match prep and extensive range time.<\/p>\n

\"Safariland<\/a>

These speed strips hold six cartridges but you can leave one slot open at the end to make using the speed strip easier.<\/p><\/div>\n

If you own a revolver you should own speedloaders and\/or speed strips. Just as with any skill they do require practice, so spend some time on the range working on smoothly ejecting spent brass from your revolver\u2019s cylinder and reloading with the Safariland Comp Speedloader or Bianchi Speed Strips (or both). They\u2019re not gimmicks, they\u2019re useful tools that could save your life someday. Or, less dramatically, they\u2019ll help you speed up reloads during matches. Either way, they\u2019re a vital part of your kit as a revolver owner so stock up and get to training.<\/p>\n

\"Safariland<\/a>

Safariland currently offers three types of Comp Speedloaders with different size knobs and various sizes.<\/p><\/div>\n

MSRP for Safariland Comp Speedloaders varies from $13.75-$20.00; MSRP for Bianchi Speed Strips $9.00\/pair.<\/p>\nTake a closer look.<\/a>\n
