Hi. As part of my preparation process, i watched a lot of videos and one such video was about the speed loaders for semi-auto pistols. Having stubby fingers that aren’t as nimble as they were 30+ years ago, i decided to get one. I got it, and i immediately set upon loading my magazines. The vide…

It is fairly simple. You still have to load one at a time. It saves your fingers when it’s cold. Not much faster than the old fashion way. Definitely easier on the last couple rounds on 17 round mags or when mag springs are stiff. It works the way it shows it works on the video.

The best feature of Uplula is that no matter how tight the mag spring is - you will always load to the last round. :+1:

After 20 + years of Brazilian Jiu Jitsu and Judo, these mag loaders are essential for me. My hands can make gi grips really well, but my fine motor movements just hurt to perform.

I’m also a big fan of the UpLula. I haven’t timed myself but it is noticeably faster and easier than trying to do it by hand. Once you figure out the rhythm it goes very smoothly.

I’m a medically retired sheet metal worker. My hands/fingers used to be so strong that i could lift a 4 x 10 sheet of steel, hoist it high enough and hold it well. When my wife and I got married, my “relaxed” state of my hand would crush her fingers, between mine. Needless to say, we don’t hold han…

I like the ets, i just wish it allowed me to actually load 10 rounds as it says. After Saturday’s experience, I’m thinking that it’s more about the ammo than me. All brass ammo is exceedingly tedious and brass cartridges with copper bullets are not.

I have the same one and it works like the bees knees, You probably need to lube it. They come packaged dry, but theres instructions to lube the bottom of the feed lips assembly right where it transitions to the magazines. then it works like butter. couple quick squirts of some Rem oil and you will …

after 20 years as a mechanic i am the same. between carple tunnel and arthritus my hands are no where near the grip strength they used to be

UpLula all the way. There is young woman sales rep for the company that demos them at our local gun shows. She can load a 20 rnd 9mm mag in well under 10 seconds. The secret to her efficiency? The same thing that gets you to Carnegie hall!
