Default Moon Clip Holder Suggestions?

Just bought a PC 642 with moon clips, and was hoping members could suggest a secure holder for loaded clips for cc on a 1-3/4" belt. I tried the "search" function, but every time I tried to make a search entry, I was kicked back to the home page for leather and gun gear. Thanks in advance for your suggestions.

I used Uncle Mikes speed loader pouches, made for a 38 spl.
I dropped one in with the bullets facing up, then a second one with the bullets facing down.
Made it easy to remove the top layer, with finger in big hole....

I have a very old pager pouch, nylon with Velcro closure. It is about as wide and thick as a pack of cigarettes but shorter. It holds three clips on the bottom row and three on the top row. Doesn't, take up much room.

SPEED LOADER POUCHES WILL ACCOMMODATE LOADED MOON CLIPS....

SAFARILAND HAS A COMPLETE LINE IN LEATHER---SINGLES, DOUBLES, AND EVEN TRIPLES...

THE DEPTH CAN BE ADJUSTED BY THE USE OF RISERS, CUT FROM STYROFOAM AND PLACED IN THE BOTTOMS, TO ADJUST THE HEIGHT AT WHICH THE LOADED MOONCLIPS WILL RIDE.....

Safariland made what was basically a strap, that was molded, with a snap. the speed loader goes over your belt and the strap goes around the belt and loader. I use the .38 special size with moon clips for my 625. You can find them where used LEO equipment is sold.

Ages ago when I was carrying a cut-down .45 ACP revolver I had a double pouch custom made. Each pouch held two loaded moon clip holders, making it slightly taller than a stock holder and I had a spare 24 rounds readily available. It wasn't that much money either. Plus there are a bunch of off-the-shelf options as noted by others above.

I am leaning towards the simply rugged full moon pouch as I am in a similar scenario as you. No experience with it, but the price is right and it looks solid

Checked it out with my speed loader pouch, and it works pretty well. Thanks for the suggestion.
