Good read on which hand should you reload with, my thoughts you should probably train/practice with both hands……

Interesting trivia fact, the claim is the Colt model P, or 1873, was designed for left hand shooting! I have a doubt or two, but that's what is claimed.

In the USAF we qe Entrained in the FBI method.(like Jerry Miculik reloads) and I found it extremely easy and fast.

That said whem I worked Municipal LE the couple guys I knew that went past 6 rounds went to theor snub backup carried behind the speed-loader pouches. And this was outside Memphis where even in the late 80’s early 90’s shootings were frequent but outside a couoke outliers nobody went past 6 rounds with wheel-guns as it was driven into our heads if it goes pst 6 we are dead!

Back in the olde days of LE college when I was shooting 500 rounds of .38 wadcutter each week practicing for PPC competitions I taught myself to reload while maintaining a firing grip. Never had a reason to change it.

It wasn’t made for left handed shooters per se but the military used the handgun for close in combat along with the saber the saber was used in the right hand.

Oh , Oh ! I know this .

For ( keep grip on gun in right hand , and reload w/ left ) , it requires a high degree of ambidexterity to be smoother & faster than the conventional way .

For me , that's not me , and l can *shoot* handgun nearly ambitexterous .

But absolutely , it's good to know both ways , and work it out for yourself .
