HKS 586A A-Series Speedloader .38/.357 6-Round Revolver Loader

Description

The HKS 586A is a no-frills, proven 6-round speedloader built for anyone running .38 Special or .357 Magnum through their L-frame Smith & Wessons or Ruger GP100. It's the kind of gear that works because it was designed to work, and it's been doing exactly that in law enforcement and competition circles for decades.

You load the six cartridges into the speedloader's metal retention points, align it with your open cylinder, and twist the knob. That's it. All six rounds drop into the chambers at the same time instead of loading them one by one. The metal points hold them secure during handling and transportation, so there's no cartridge jiggle or rounds bouncing around in your range bag.

What Makes the 586A Design Solid

The lightweight polymer body keeps weight minimal while the knurled aluminum knob gives you something solid to grip, even if your hands are wet or you're working under stress. Everything about it is straightforward. There's no complicated mechanism, no multiple steps, just insert and twist. That consistency is why you see so many of these at the range and why people who've used them for years keep buying more. The twist-knob release is smooth once you get the hang of it, and most users find it becomes second nature with a little practice.

Compatibility and Fit

This model works with S&W 586, 686, 581, and 681 revolvers, plus the Ruger GP100. Before you order, double-check that your specific revolver is on that list. If you've got custom grips or oversized wood grips, they can sometimes interfere with the release, so that's worth verifying too. This is a medium-size case loader, so if you're thinking about storage or carrying it in a pouch, that's the dimension you're working with.

Made in the USA
