Does Not Work With New Model Python
I really don’t want to give a star rating on this product but it is required. I will explain. A friend of mine has these for his S&W 686 and loves them as do a number of other ICORE shooters I know. So when, I bought my new Python I ordered 4 of these. In order to use speed loaders with the new Python, the left grip has to be modified. I purchased custom grips with a cutout for the speedloaders. However, even with the modified grip, the CompII speedloader will not fully seat in the cylinder. As near as I can tell, the holes in the speedloader are spaced differently than the holes in the cylinder which results in the rounds binding when attempting to load. As this speedloader has to make contact with the cylinder to eject the rounds, it just doesn’t work. I assume this will work with the original Python but I can’t say for sure. I have started using HKS speedloaders and they work just fine. So, if you have a new Python, these are not for you. If they do fit your gun, I have heard very good things about them.

Difficult at first.
I ordered this for one of my customers for use with his Taurus. After severial minutes we finally got the rounds to lock and stay in the loader, this became easier as we worked the loader. We found the same issues when loading the weapon it took some work to enguage the release. I think the idea is good and mybe the issues that we had are due to not fitting the Taurus well.
