lugnut Posted December 30, 2011 Share Posted December 30, 2011 Here's a pic of my friend's next to mine. Mine are brand new and MUCH taller. The post and the kydex part is taller. This wouldn't be an issue if I had large mits... anyone else notice this with the newer ones? Damn! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Norther Posted December 30, 2011 Share Posted December 30, 2011 They make 2 heights, you just got the tall ones made for .38s. The shorter ones are nicer for .45 auto, but are too short for the longer rounds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The place I ordered them from had them listed as Moon Clip holder for IDPA... so I thought they would be for .45 and be the short ones.. guess not. I guess I can try to exchange them... modifying them might not be that difficult except for the post..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you for the offer. I didn't purchase them from your web site so I don't want to burden you. Good to know of another source for revo gear... I do need to get some 617 speed loaders!

Brian B Posted December 30, 2011 Share Posted December 30, 2011 I've used these speed loaders and loading blocks for a few years with my S&W 617. I highly recommend them: DS 10 Speed http://www.revolversupply.com/documents/speed_loaders.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gpappy Posted January 3, 2012 Share Posted January 3, 2012 I have been looking at these holders and wondering how well they work. I used to use the blade tech holders until IDPA made those illegal and have only been shooting practices with my revolver since. Guess I should get some new holders and start shooting matches again.

I've only recently started using them... but they are the best out there IMO. I've tried a few others... and liked these the best. Just get the correct one for your needs.

CDPMatt Posted January 3, 2012 Share Posted January 3, 2012 Mine are the long ones as well. Also my 5 post NM rig is the long ones as well. I didn't realize there were length options. I did not order directly from Bob though. All this being said, both my set ups work great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
