Old cop is right. The high horn stocks are not only taller, but they are accordingly a bit fatter, or wider at the rounded contour.
I couldn't use a Safariland speedloader with the original stocks. Safariland holds the cartridges very rigidly. I found the HKS speedloaders work with the original stocks because they allow the cartridges to wiggle.
