This HKS cordura nylon speedloader case is decent quality for a light-duty case, but if you are looking for a case to put on a duty belt or on a stiff gun belt for home-defense, it is not the best choice. It has no internal stiffeners at all to keep the case open for inserting the loaders, and the Velcro closures are not as secure as a snap closure.

This case holds two speedloaders. It is 3-1/2" wide and it has one full-length belt loop that will slide on belts up to 2-1/4" wide. For use on a narrower belt, it is possible to sew a line of stitching through the belt loop (on the top side), so the belt loop will not be as loose.

The main advantage this nylon case has over a rigid speedloader case is that it can be flattened or folded over with a rubber band for storage to take up very little space - and not look like an ammo case. With the speedloaders inserted, it also sticks out a little less from your belt than a rigid case, if that is a concealed carry concern.

The only other advantage might be an application where you would want to wear the case unloaded, rolled over inside a casual belt so it just looks like a small flat belt case. Then it can be quickly rotated to accept the speedloaders.

The semi-rigid HKS Hytrel plastic cases or leather cases from other manufacturers are much better if you are going to keep the case permanently on a duty belt or a gun belt. The snap closure on the rigid case is more secure than the velcro on the nylon case. For self-defense, inserting/removing the loaders is also easier with the rigid case.

The nylon case only comes in one size to fit all size HKS speedloaders, so it is loose when holding the medium HKS speedloaders, such as those for 5-shot 38 Special or .357 Mag. However, this can be fixed by sewing a line of stitching on either side of the fuzzy Velcro to take them in about 1/8" on both sides of the Velcro.

One other trick to improve these soft nylon speedloader cases: You can buy one of those plastic containers that hold little tubs of friut drink mixes; then cut out about a 1-1/2" strip from the top of the container, and roll it up inside the case to make a rigid tube around the speedloader. This keeps the case open for inserting the speedloaders.

In contrast, the HKS rigid Hytrel cases come in two sizes, medium and large, and the medium is supposed to fit the five-shot loaders and other even smaller loaders for 22LR. The Hytrel case costs about $5 more than this nylon case, and is available in smooth finish or basket-weave.

I bought one of these to carry some speed loaders for my woods gun. It works, but it is not very tough. It is definitely not rigid and one has to pay attention when traveling through heavy woods. It is easily possible to scrape the velcro closures open.

Well worth the money. I am very glad to have gotten this. They are nice quality. You won't be disappointed!

Bought with the HKS Speedloader for .44 Mag (HKS Revolver Speedloader for S&W 29, 629/Dan Wesson/Ruger Redhawk/Super Redhawk/Colt Anaconda/Taurus .44, 444 Raging Bull).

First use was a tight fit; I had to work it into the pocket. After a few in-and-outs, the pocket got broken in and it worked great! The material is certainly not as good as the leather but it is unbeatable for the price and function.

Case is ok for everyday carrying of speedloaders,for concealed carried hangs a bit low and can use a bit of plastic to keep it from hanging down.The velcro is ok, but needs to be watched, as it would be on any items using velcro. I would not advise it as a piece of equipment for a duty belt or law enforcement equipment. Good price for a ok item.

Bought this for my 5 round speed loaders. Wish I had purchased two. They are simple in design and work great. The velcro can be a bit noisy, but if you are going for a reload, whatever you are shooting at already knows you're there...

This item is nice to have. Holding 2 speedy loader`s is better then no extra speedy loader`s. So if you have a 5 shot, well in m y case a 5-shot Ruger Sp101, then I would recommend this case. The velcro make`s it very easy to open quickly to reload.

I was dissapointed with this product.This case is not as accomodating for speedloaders as the leather speedloader cases. I had to force the speedloader into this case. Also I feel this product was over priced for shipping .I've paid this amount of shipping for heavier products .Over all this was not a good shopping experience!

this case is great i have two 36a HKS spee =d loaders and they fit perfectly, and the case fits comfortably on my belt.

The double speed loader case was perfect in every way. Easily attaches to belt and easy to open and retrieve bullets.
