K6-357/38 Speed Loader

I am very impressed with the quality and overall fit and finish. Although a departure from the norm (HKS) in that they release in the opposite direction, I think that feature too is a plus. The only reason the rating is not five (5) +, is that the S/L were ordered for a new model Colt King Cobra (2019). When ordering via telephone I made that clear several times, however I was informed that the correct S/L was a K6. I instructed that the new King Cobra and the Cobra should use the same S/L and that the old King Cobra as well as the Trooper, Peacemaker etc. would be approximately K frame sized. I trusted the seller (reluctantly) to know their product and placed the order. Upon arrival the S/L did not fit. The cylinder would not spin with it inserted and that was with 38 Spl., 357 mag would be worse. I am keeping the S/L for my S&W K-Frames, as I like them, but I really needed S/L’s for the Colt.

A few years ago, I used your 5 round speed loader on my former Ruger SP101 with great success. However, I now have your 6 round speed loader for my new Rock Island Armory M206 38 Special revolver. The disappointment is that with just 3 reloads the speed loader has literally scratched off the parkerized finish right below the cylinder release. I will have to stop using your speed loader and reload with either speed strips or round by round. I wish I had known how the aluminum would immediately ruin parkerizing. Thanks for listening.
