An earlier prototype used something similar but with no fork at all. What I found is that if the pouch is not supported it has a tendency to twist. A smaller fork might work though. Or thicker leather. Or both.
I wondered how important the fork was. My thinking is that the pouch should be stabilized by having it attached to the stick at two points side by side. The fork should be wide enough to work but as short as possible to get the best performance.

As for the release cord lock that would probably work well but different size ammo would cause the release cord to be different lengths making it only suitable for ammo that is all exactly the same size and type. If I'm understanding where you are coming from.
I'm not terribly worried about that. It will definitely happen, but I can't imagine it hurting anything until you start trying to load things much larger than the size of the pouch.

I like your thinking Masi. Basically your post illustrates what I often do in my spare time. I just create/modify stuff endlessly in my head.
Of course, your an engineer so you get paid big money when you do it! lol.
This isn't engineering. This is fun.
Now, what is this "money" you speak of? I've heard rumors of a substance that is bartered for food but I have not seen anything like it yet. For now I am forced to subsist on charity, day old Jimmy John's bread, and bulk packs of instant ramen noodles.
