Re: Carrying Extra Ammo For The Snubby ?

Update.

I just ordered 2 five round quickstrips and the pouch to carry them in from Tuff Products.

Here's a demo video.

Warning...The guy is not an actor. :lol:

I carried the LCP for a long time before the snub.

I actually feel like the snub prints less like a gun shape due to the curves
of the cylinder and grip..especially in a pocket holster.

To me the LCP ,even though is very slim, shows up as more of a distinctive "L" shape.

When wearing cargo style shorts/pants with nice deep pockets, a snub virtually disappears.

Re: Carrying Extra Ammo For The Snubby ?

OK, It looks like speed strips are the way to go.
Thanks for the links. I'm probably going to order two strips and the pouch.

I'm sure with practice I can get accustomed to reloading with these.
Plus, I think it will be easier to carry than the speed loaders.

Carrying Extra Ammo For The Snubby ?

Hello.

As some of you know I've recently acquired a S&W 642 for pocket carry.
I see my self carrying this as a primary firearm sometimes for summer and while working.

I love this gun but don't love the idea of limiting myself to only having five rounds of ammo.

As I see it there are two options...Speed Strips or Speed Loaders.

I like the idea of speed strips because they can be carried in flat format verses speed loaders
which are bulkier.

Anyone willing to share thoughts on this subject ?
