Default Source for Aftermarket Magna-Style Grips Cut for Speedloaders?

I've got a 4" M10-5 that I'd like to try with Magnas with a grip adapter. It gets used as a carry gun so I need to be able to use speedloaders with it. The factory ones don't work that way, so I'm looking for aftermarket ones that do. Recommendations?

Thanks!

I can not think of any made that way. I carried a K frame for a decade or so, Magnas and grip adapter, qualified with it, and do not recall an issue.

What speedloader are you using? I carried HKS Model 10.

I have not used speedloaders all that much but when I have the magna stocks did not cause any problems.

Magnas allow clearance for speed loaders. Older target stocks were an issue, but that was resolved long ago.

If you want something nice, try a set of stag magnas with a T-grip.

As stated above, Speedloaders should clear Magna grips. I only use Safariland Speedloaders and they always clear Magna grips. Maybe post a picture showing the problem?

HKS Model 10 clears the RB and SB grips on my K frames too.

You must have a very early 10-5 (1962 or so) with original grips. I remember some cops shaving wood off the grip to use speedloaders.

If you look at any aftermarket grips today they will be relived for speedloaders.
