will it allow use of hks 36-a speed loaders on s&w 642?

i have a model 638 and i cannot use 36a speedloader with or without the hogue grip

I mounted the grips on a S&W; mod. 36 Chief five shot. The HKS 36a speed loader worked well.

I never had problems with any HOGUE grips on any of my revolvers, they are made for comfort and will not be in the way of any operation

Yes, but don't let the ammo go all the way in. Set in about 3/4 of the way and release. They will drop in effortlessly.

Grips are excellent for the gun, but I believe they would not allow the speed loader to line up straight. I have never tried a speed loader so my positive.

Not sure, I use this on a S/W 686+1 7 shot and it works pretty well....not too many 7 shot speedloaders out there....

I have the 357 LCR with hogue grips and the outside dia of this speedloader is too large to work. You can insert the cartridges partially, but not deep enough to depress the button on the speedloader to release the cartridges. The outside of this speedloader hangs up on the frame/grips. Get the HKS speedloader because that one works just as it should.

A Revolver Speed loader chart I looked at doesn't have the Ruger LCR shown as compatable with the HKS 36-A! Hope this was helpful.

Mine is a mod 64 and it fits perfectly. However I can't use my speed loaders anymore because of the thickness of the new grip.

you should have no problem with this speed loader as it is for smith & Wesson 5 shot revolvers not to familiar with the 624 air weight but most smiths 5m 5 shot revolvers have same cylinder patterns

I have a 642 CT airweight. The CT stands for the crimson trace laser grips that came factory installed. These speedloaders work fine for me. However, when I was researching speedloaders, I found that sever people who have thicker grips, or factory grips have clearance issues with this speed loader. If that's the case, and you do not want to change your grips, I suggest you look into using speed strips, or quick strips.

No, it won't work with speed loaders (I tried). I purchased a pair of speed strips (no. 580 for the 38 caliber) that i use instead.

yes it does. I have on my 642 and it works well. I could not imagine firing that revolver with wooden grips!

depends on the ammunition manufacturer...some brass/aluminum vary slightly so that makes for a very tight fit in the speed loader...loader will loosen up with usage..also there are other brands of speedloaders

Hi, I do not own that particular gun so I can't say with 100% accuracy. However this speed loader works with all standard spring loaded clips so I believe the answer is yes.

David: On my gun, the grips will clear the HKS speed loader. I have the "skinny" cylinder latch, which is current production. Might be a problem on older J-frame guns.

Maybe Charles can restate his Question: What gun do you have and need a speed loader for?If we're talking about Ruger SP101, like in here: http://www.ruger.com/products/sp101/specSheets/5719.htmlThen HKS 36A is the one you need.If you are looking for a speed loader for another gun...keep on looking :-)

I would think that it would be OK. I bought mine for a K-frame S&W; Model 10 of around 1919 manufacture. The S&W; DS is a slightly smaller frame, but the cartridge, and therefor the cylinder should be the same. Be aware that these HKS speedloaders are incredibly "stiff" and will require a lot of working until they operate smoothly. Good luck.

I believe you want an HKS MK3-A speedloader. That one is for Colts, the 586-A is primarily for S&W's
