    I carry my speed strip in the little 5th pocket of my jeans.

    I can't verbally describe it well - but I straddle the top of my belt with the loader or moonclip. I run a thick rubber band from the knob, under he belt and back onto the knob. When grabbed with force - the rubber band breaks and flies off somewhere - and I'm ready to load.

    Do you mind posting a picture of this set-up? Would it be possible for rounds to be pulled from the speedloader while removing it from the belt? I apologize if that's a dumb question I don't shoot revolvers often and never carry one.

    2 speed strips in the storage wallet/pouch thing. It's either in my offhand back/cargo pocket or offhand jacket pocket. I don't use it on my belt like it's made to do.

    Same here. I've looked long and hard and Simply Rugged's speedloader pouches as the cleanest solution yet.

    Oh, and make my speedloaders Safariland Comp IIs

    Sorry - but I'm a non-techy geezer, so pics are not in my future.

    Only way you'll lose a round is the same way you'd lose one coming out of a pouch, i.e., twisting the loader knob.
