Simply go to a knife shop, and get a pair of the cordura knife pouches with the velcro flap that cover the knife. These can be worn on the belt, and even if they show, they do not say "GUN", and are assumed to be a buck knife! They keep the mag clean, and are instantly available.

I carry all types of handguns concealed, but as stated above the speed loaders for revolvers are too bulky, and so I rarely carry one with my chief special. This leaves me with five in the snubby, and spare ammo in a pocket, making re-load a bit slow!

Even the in-line magazines carry more ammo than a ravolver, and are far quicker to re-load with a spare magazine. Then if you have a high capacity magazine, like the many 17-1 rounds, a spare magazine is not really necessary. I'd say in 99% of the cases wher one has to use a firarm to protect himself, or others, 18 rounds is going to be pleanty!

IMO, the best concealed carry pistol is a double action auto with a hammer drop lever and an exposed rounded spur hammer. The chambering is your choice, but I prefere 40 S&W, or 45ACP, though I do carry pistols as small as a little Beretta Tomcat, 32acp, usually as back-up for one of the larger handguns. Even a .22 short is better than a prayer!
