If speed of reloading is of no concern SKS stripper clips will hold ten cartridges. I use the bianchi speed strips that the gentlemen above mentioned.
Don't carry a gun because of what may happen today. Carry because once, just once, and at the least likely time imaginable, you may run into the worst monster you ever could imagine. Be their worst nightmare and resist them with all the stubbornness that our pioneer ancestors posessed. To do less is to be unamerican.

Do you mind telling us why you would forego such an advantage and deliberately choose a much slower reloading method?

I carry my speedloaders in an el-cheapo nylon camera case on my belt. The case holds up to 3 speedloaders without any problems, and with less bulk than a conventional speedloader holder. I tried, and I will never be a Jerry Miculek - so I know it won't be a speedy reload if the SHTF. Therefore I rely on a BUG in the weak hand pocket aka New York Reload.

The problem I had was most Speed Loader cases are TO BIG for CCW. I lucked out when I found an HKS 22-357 case that is small enough to use in the summer time.

In my case, it's a matter of concealment. The stripper clips have a much smaller profile, and fit nicely in my shirt pocket for my backup gun. On duty I've got so much stuff to carry in my suit coat pockets and on my belt, it's the best choice for me. With practice, it is very possible to quickly load with a stripper. Off duty, in cooler weather, I often put a speed loader in my pocket when I opt for revolver carry.
