Practical firearms discussion: Revolvers fitted with moonclips

Clips make for faster reloading as well as the ability to use more effective ammo in snubs, i.e. 38 vs 9mm. Here are the disadvantages. Crimp jumping of ammo is a potential problem and the cartridges must be approved for use in moon clip weapons. The second is that you can't top off empties and recharge a partially filled weapon without removing the clip. Thirdly the clips can be bent, and good holders are bulky, expensive and hard to find.
