I am contemplating a 3" Taurus 856 as a belly gun for my wife when she is walking for exercise with her friends. I really prefer speed loaders to speed strips for revolvers, but have not seen any for the 856. Are you guys aware of any out there?
 
I use the HKS 10-A loaders in my old model (6-shot) Taurus 66. They fit the 856 as well. They hold up really well too. I've had the same pair of HKS 10-As for nearly 30 years. They still work like new.

I bought a 2" Taurus 856 last October. My Safariland COMP II Speedloaders (from the bubblecard, # J-K2C "Model:J" ... listing the Taurus 66, among others) do not work with this revolver.

My old HKS 10s (I have no 10-As) will work with some "fiddling" practice :eek: ... not an ideal thing for when you need to reload with celerity and possibly only by touch.

Now ... off to source some HKS 10-As. :)


EDIT: From what I have seen on the web, what I have are 10-As.

Schade.
