S&W M442 with MOON CLIPS?

[Mr.357Sig]

I was visiting the S&W website today and saw they have a Model 442 with moon clips.

Being a revolver newbie, I was wondering what are the advantages (if any) to owning a .38 Spl snubbie with moon clips as opposed to without?

It's suggested retail is $20 more than the normal 442. Is a moon clip 442 $20 better?

Moon clips offer faster reloads. That's really the only benefit.

Thanks WNC.
