Not really! It's much faster than a speed loader, but the cylinder has
to be cut for one. Not all revolvers can use a moon clip.

You've never fired an AR. They are a joy to shoot. Might be a small
caliber but at a muzzle velocity of 3,200 fps, they do mess up someone's
day. You should see what they do to a varmint at 100 yards...

One important thing to me tho' is ease of field stripping for cleaning.
The AR has that ease, as does my Taurus PT-92.
