It's a drop pouch used by police back when they carried revolvers and was worn on a duty belt. The top flap is for inserting the cartridges, the bottom flap lets them drop into the users hand for quick reloading. They're not worth a lot, maybe $5-$10. They were pretty much obsolete by the time speed loaders became popular.

It saves me a lotta time when they're labeled "IN" on the top flap and "OUT" on the bottom flap.......

That's true, but then I would probably put it on the belt upside down.

What about when you practice inverted rappelling at the forum training facility?

The dump pouches are also exactly the right size to carry your Zippo lighter. I worked with a guy who carried an extra dump pouch just for such purpose!
