Safariland Comp1 or Comp2 are probably the best in my opinion for concealed carry. They are spring loaded and with a little practice they do the job. I use Comp3 speedloaders for competition and would even condsider carrying a couple of them over the standard HKS speedloaders I have to use at work.

It also depends on which caliber and gun you plan on using them for.  I only use HKS for they make them in all the calibers and models that I need.  Sarfariland are faster but I like the compactness and same method of use on the HKS

J frame 22 mag, 6 shot
J frame 38 Spl, 5 shot
K frame 38/357, 6 shot
L frame 38/357, 6 shot
N frame 41 mag, 6 shot
N frame 44 cal, 6 shot
CA 44 SPL. 5 shot

I only own hks stuff now.

They work fine for me and I decided to just pick something and stick with it.

I had some safariland for a while and they were ok but now and then would eject their loads if just kept loose in a pocket by themselves or something.

HKS has not caused me any issues.

I have four HKS speedloaders for both my revolvers; S&W 629 and 642. Never had any issues.

I have the HKS for my 642.  I generally use them on them on the range.

I wish I had a way to carry one in my pocket.  Is there a small pouch or something for this?

Don't want to carry it on my belt.

Same here. I own both Colt and S&W revovlers, and I want to keep both loaders the same.

Sarfariland is good, but they only make loaders for a few revovlers.

i dont know if your strictly thinking of speedloaders for carrying, but i kind of like the bianchi speed strips, more or less keeps the bullets all together, and you can put it in your pocket without worrying about someone noticing it. i dont know, just throwing it out there, to each his own

No doubt the Speed Strip is easier to carry.

But, the HKS is about ten times faster/simpler for me.
