Claim 3

A carrier of claim 1 wherein said means for holding includes a coarse section of thistle cloth.

Claim 4

A carrier of claim 1 wherein said means for holding includes a fleece section of thistle cloth.

Claim 5

A carrier of claim 1 wherein said back section has an interior surface shaped to correspond to an exterior surface of said speedloader body.

Claim 6

A carrier of claim 1 wherein said back section is an open cylindrical tubing section.

Claim 7

A carrier of claim 5 wherein said base section is circular in shape and has the same diameter as the diameter of said open cylindrical tubing section.

Claim 8

A carrier of claim 6 further including a cover which comprises a hollow cylinder closed at one end, said cylinder having an interior diameter sufficiently greater than the exterior diameter of said base section to permit said cover to slide over said back and base sections, said cover having a slot extending from the open end of said cylinder to permit said cover to pass by said flexible strip.

Claim 9

The carrier of claim 7 wherein said carrier includes a cap and said cover includes first means for securing said cap to said open end of said cylinder when said cover is in place over said back and base sections, whereby said cap holds said cover in place.

Claim 10

The carrier of claim 8 wherein said cover includes second means for securing said cap to said closed end of said cylinder, whereat said cap may be stored as said cover is being removed from said back and base sections.

Claim 11

Claim 13

A carrier for a revolver speedloader, which has a body adaptd to hold a plurality of cartridges parallel to one another in a circular pattern comprising: a. a section of thistle cloth attached to an exterior surface of said body of said speedloader; b. a back section having a pair of spaced apart slots; c. a flexible strip passing through said slots, said strip having coarse and fleece thistle cloth sections to permit a closed loop to be formed by said strip, and said strip further including a section of thistle cloth located on that portion of said strip between said slots and between said speedloader body and said back section which is complementary to that section of thistle cloth on the body of said speedloader, for holding said speedloader body against said back section; and d. a base section extending outwardly from said back section, said base section having a protuberance extending upwardly a sufficient height, and located from the junction of said base and back sections a sufficient distance, to capture tips of cartridges loaded into said speedloader when said loaded speedloader is held fast against said back section by said complementary section of thistle cloth.

Claim 14

A carrier for a revolver speedloader, which has a body adaptd to hold a plurality of cartridges parallel to one another in a circular pattern comprising: a. a section of thistle cloth attached to an exterior surface of said body of said speedloader; b. a back section having a pair of spaced apart slots; c. a flexible strip passing through said slots, said strip having coarse and fleece thistle cloth sections to permit a closed loop to be formed by said strip, and said strip further including a section of thistle cloth located on that portion of said strip between said slots and between said speedloader body and said back section which is complementary to that section of thistle cloth on the body of said speedloader, for holding said speedloader body against said back section; and d. a base section extending outwardly from said back section, said base section having a protuberance extending upwardly a sufficient height, and located from the junction of said base and back sections a sufficient distance, to capture tips of cartridges loaded into said speedloader when said loaded speedloader is held fast against said back section by said complementary section of thistle cloth.
