New speed loader for 617-10

[Matti Hytola]

This speed loader is designed by Hytola Engineering with John Moses Browning's principle in mind: as few parts as possible. It has no moving components, 3D printing made this possible. Simply load the rounds into the loading block, gently press the speed loader down, and turn it clockwise to lock the ammunition in place.

The set includes five speed loaders and one loading block for 5x10 .22 LR cartridges.

Pretty cool! I had one designed a couple years ago but no time to finish it.

Prototypes. Three top ones are close to final (current) version.

Very nice. It needs a bigger, beefier handle on top, though. They could sell a lot of those to competition shooters if it had that feature.

Plans to expand to 32 and 38 calibers?

Good idea! Do you have a vision how the handle should look like?

Not at the moment. I would like too see how this start to sell first. For 38 and 32 it might be hard to beat moonclips.

You might look at Safariland Comp II ones for ideas.

Good work, Matti!
If I get a vote, the knob should be somewhat "mushroom" shaped, with knurled edges, allowing good purchase regardless of orientation.

What advantage are yours, compared to Speedbeez?

With 50 bucks you get 5 speed loaders and loading block.

That is just outstanding!

And where does one purchase these from?

You should be able to purchase those from ebay by searching for "5pc Speedloader set for 10 shot Smith & Wesson 617". Let me know if you do not find those and I will send you a link as direct message. I'm not sure if forum rules accept sales links in open discussion.
