Several people have asked me how to modify the Safariland Comp-3 
speed-loaders for better reliability . If you have used a Comp-3 you may have experienced difficulty getting the cartridges to eject into the cylinder in a timely manner. Much of this issue has to do with the hole drilled in the center of the plunger, this hole was originally meant to keep the Comp-3 from actuating the center pin on the extractor rod. Since we are not worried about the extractor rod, while reloading, efficiency can be found in plugging the hole in the Comp-3.
To modify your Comp-3 you need a $0.30 part, which can be found at most hardware stores. Find the nut, bolt and nail section and look for Nylon Push in Fasteners: Size PIF 53 had the correct dimensions to plug the Comp-3 hole.
Simply push the fastener in the hole, no adhesive or other bonding agents are necessary. Once complete you will find the Comp 3 loads cartridges much smoother and it releases a little quicker.

The folks from ammunition accountability are at it again this year. Although this piece of legislation keeps dying every time it is proposed, they are trying again. There tag line of saving lives one bullet at a time is comical at best. The system has many conceptual problems, including increasing the manufacturing cost of ammunition, as well as local, state and federal agency administrative cost. The thought that one could track a criminal through a registered bullet is a little far fetched.
What makes one think if criminals steal guns, and deface serial numbers on guns, they will not do the same for ammunition?
From WND:
Group asks states to track citizens’ ammo
Organization claims it is ’saving lives 1 bullet at a time’
By Chelsea Schilling
© 2008 WorldNetDailyLegislation to trace ammunition is pending in several states, and many gun owners are concerned that it is just another attempt by anti-gun groups to violate citizens’ Second Amendment rights.An organization known as Ammunition Accountability is pushing to make coding technology mandatory across the nation. Its website claims it is a group of “gun crime victims, industry representatives, law enforcement, public officials, public policy experts, and more” who are “saving lives one bullet at a time.”
If states pass the legislation, manufacturers will be required to laser etch a serial number into the back of each bullet and the inside of cartridge casings, a patented process developed by Seattle, Wash., resident Russ Ford and his business partners, Steve Mace and John Knickerbocker.
According to Seattle Weekly, the men couldn’t find an ammunition manufacturer to agree to stamp bullets, so they hired a lobbyist to push for state legislation to require the laser coding. They launched the Ammunition Accountability website and successfully introduced bills in the following 18 states: Alabama, Arizona, California, Connecticut, Hawaii, Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky, Maryland, Mississippi, Missouri, New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, South Carolina, Tennessee and Washington.
