Reloading QuickStrips

There's a new product on the market, one that's quickly wormed its way into my affection—QuickStrips.


These simple little molded rubber strips hold several cartridges in a row positioned in readiness to be loaded into a revolver cylinder, allowing you to carry several rounds of ammo for any gun in your pocket as a unit.


While the idea is not new—revolver loaders of various types have been around for many years—QuickStrips are made in great variety and for several capacities.


We've had six-round .38/.357 strips for years, but you can now get QuickStrips in five-shot, seven-shot and eight-shot versions as well. Made of molded rubber, the new product is a bit more flexible than previous types.


The management of Tuff Products is very aggressive and adds new products all the time. I am particularly impressed with their five-shot units that go with a J frame S&W and another one in .410 shotshell for the Taurus Judge.

I've used them for many years, and prefer them to speedloaders - not as fast(?), but then they don't dump in your pocket. I cut off the tab, grab the whole thing in my fingers, and load two-at-a-time. At any time, if things get really hairy, you can stop, drop the partially emptied strip, close the cylinder, and start pulling the trigger. And they don't print in your pocket.
