Fast, can give you much more ammo then Extra Ammunition. Brilliant brilliant card.

The extra cost is no problem, characters have more money than most. The extra XP is perfectly worth the bonus ammo and saved action. Just ask Leo Anderson, he allways has some ammo in his supply pack, Mark Harrigan too!

Jokes aside, there's a variety of firearms so all the fighty dudes would do well to at least consider this card a bit.

Edit: wups, Mark cant take it! Still good tho.

Mark Harrigan can't run Swift Reload. He only gets level 0 Tactic cards. — Death by Chocolate · 1447
Any ruling on how to use this with Jenny Barnes’ signature Twin 45’s? I would guess you just use the same amount of uses it was put into play with? — jeffa6543 · 1
This is from the FAQ 3 years ago: If you use Sleight of Hand to put Jenny's Twin .45s into play, you never pay the cost so you never specify what X is. (“If X is not defined, its value is equal to 0.” RR, page 22) Same goes for while Jenny’s Twin .45s are in your hand. After it is played, its cost is no longer defined, so it reverts back to being undefined (“X”, or “0”). Essentially, the cost of Jenny’s Twin .45s is only defined while you are playing it. -- So, it looks like Swift Reload would only load it up to 0 — Wildweasel · 7

Yea, it's pretty damn stupid that this isn't a Guardian card — TheDoc37 · 468
