Some folks don't like moon clips but I think they are just as good as speed loaders and have not had any issues with them in my 940. Another advantage is a 9mm revolver might attract some European sales which S&W spells like $ale$. The M547 was a good attempt but the fragile extractor system didn't sell well and it was as heavy as a M13. Address those two issues and you'd have a winner.
Moon clips are a serious liability when a partial reload is needed.
