Acknowledging that the likelihood that any of us non-sworn individuals will ever need the eleventh round is astronomical, I wonder how many others only carry 5 rounds in their carriers that were built for 6.

I generally carry a speedloader over my speed strips. When I do carry speed strips and a 5 shot J frame, I always use the 6th slot. An extra round can't hurt and it doesn't add enough weight to make it a consideration
