Anyway, for those who use guns, I was wondering if anyone feels there is any merit to carrying a speedloader for a revolver? Personally, I find it cumbersome and doubt I would ever use it.

Lastly, does anyone have any experience with Crimson Trace laser grips?

I don't think I would carry a speed loader for a revolver. If I was to carry a revolver (I'm thinking about a S&W 340PD) it's because I want to drop it in my pocket and forget about it. A speed loader would be more poop in my pockets/on my belt. I normally carry a Glock 23 and a mag or two.

I have used Crimson Trace a few times. They're based here in Beaverton, Oregon and they have been to a few matches that I have been to. One time, they used a Sig in .45ACP as a "pick up gun" and it was equipped with the grips. I didn't really even notice the laser because I was using the sites (it was daytime). I have seen people use them with great effect in night matches though.
