Product Review: Crossbreed Concealable Speedloader Carrier
Grant CunninghamDescription
Many people carry compact revolvers, like the Smith & Wesson “J” frame guns, but most don’t have an efficient way to reload that revolver because speed loaders are hard to carry. That is, until now. PDN Contributor, Grant Cunningham, is at the Crossbreed Holsters booth, looking at the new Crossbreed Speedloader Case that makes a full reload both concealable and fast to access.
We're here at the CrossBreed Holsters booth at the NRA show and showing us something that I'm actually very proud of because I had a little bit to do with this. Now, a lot of people are using, of course, CrossBreed's really great tuckable holster, the super tug, for their J frame revolvers. Now, this is a great holster. It's concealable, it's comfortable, and very, very popular. Now, the problem of course, that the J frame has up until now been, how do you carry a reload with it?
Now, a lot of people are carrying, you know, like, the strips in their pocket, and that certainly works, but a lot of people really want to carry a speed loader for even faster reloading, and up until now that really hasn't been easy to do. You either had to put it in, maybe in a pocket, or something like that, and fish it out if you needed it. And so, CrossBreed is now making a design like, that I said I'm very proud of, because I had a hand in this design, the new CrossBreed speed loader case and this carries the speed loader horizontally on the belt. So, that it's centered over the belt. It is very concealable; it doesn't stick out to the side or something.
And yet it's very, very fast to access because all you have to do is undo the snap and take the speed loader out and then into the gun. I designed it specifically to be concealable and to be fast to deploy. So, to be able to carry now, a speed loader, and keep it as concealed as the gun itself, is a big feature of the new CrossBreed speed loader case. So, if you're carrying a J frame revolver get a CrossBreed super tuck holster, or one of the other CrossBreed holsters, you know they make a really great belly band holster for the J frame as well, and use a CrossBreed holster and get one of the CrossBreed speed loader cases; so, that you can carry a full reload and reload very quickly, if you should happen to need it.
Did Crossbreed Holsters ever make these j frame speed loader holders? I just came across these, but can't find where they're sold. Any help finding them would be appreciated. Thank you!
