Just bought one and much appreciated!
just another quick fingers, I've had to figure it myself.
Why would you unload your mag just because you decided not to shoot that day? Leave your mags loaded instead of wearing out the spring.
Shut up and take my money😎
Maglula has THE best mag loaders hands down. I been using them for years now and they save me valuable range time loading mags for practice.
Would that second loader work on a Mini 14 magazine?
Saves my thumbs especially the 10/22 mags bought a loader for that one.
Thank you!!
This was a very easy to follow and concise video. Thank you
I like all the Lula loaders, I have the UpLula, MagLula for several types of mags and the StripLula all work great.
Wasnt this a Jerry Seinfeld show? where he couldnt remember her name but it rhymed with a body part?
Will that rifle loader work for ar mags as well as mini 14 mags?
Better than a Glock loader.
Better than a Glock loader.
So what about these loaders for the double stack magazines like the Beretta PX4 Storm 9mm
I have shot M-16 and M-4, (NOT AR-15), both 5.56mm. We just pushed the rounds in from the top of the magazine, the ideal way to load.It's just as fast, and painless! I can, however, see the value in using a loader for a handgun. They are well worth the money.
I am 76 and have a Glock 26 and the Uplula is a great piece of hardware.
*Standard cap. Don't play anti-gun word games.
Does it work with a p-mag?
Always put the first round in by hand. I've heard of the loader damaging the follower sometimes w too much pressure
That ar mag loader is bad ass
This is time (and money) very well spent!
wow i need both
I received an Uplula just the other day. Getting the 12th round in a Sig P365 magazine was difficult if not nearly impossible, and I’ve got reasonably strong hands & fingers. Watched the manufacturer’s video, but I ended up holding it exactly the same way Steve does. It works. What else is there to say?
That AR magazine loader looks great as well…. I especially like the fast unloading feature.
Automatic pistols? Semi automatic.
I bought a Schmeisser 60 rd AR clip and couldn't put more than 10 rds into the damned thing. The AR15 Lula loaded all 60 effortlessly.
Beautiful
All these years are practicing made those strokes easy.
How can I order one? My location is in North Macedonia (Europe)!!!
I never had trouble loading mags in the old days but the modern mags definitely need a Maglulu #1 tool in my range bag.
I load ar mags with stripper clips. I unload them through the barrel. 😎
Already got the uplula but I can't find a maglula anywhere. Do they still make them?
Thanks for the easy to follow tutorial. Just picked up both of these and they work great! Handgun mags are the worst on thumbs.
I bought my first one to load 9mm AR Magazines. I'd never had trouble loading a magazine until I met the 9mm Colt stick mags! Enter the 13 round Shield Plus Magazines and they're worse! I can load the 10 round magazine easily and I can load 12 into the 13 round magazine easily. With the UpLULA I could get the 13th round into 2 of my 13 round magazines. I could not in the other two. I'll try again in a few days to see if i can.
Would be nice if someone came up with a loader that doesn’t need a table or hard surface…
Love my Maglula and UPLULA
I bought a knockoff brand from Amazon, while it worked, meh. I bought the uplula about 2 months ago and it's been phenomenal. Basically I wasted my money on that knockoff.
0:17 for pistol magazines, you should always load the first round manually, and then use the speed loader for the rest. There are stories of peoples' magazine followers being damaged because they used the loader for the first round.
Great video, just purchased this item and were looking to see how the mechanics work particularly. Thanks for the tutorial & keep up the great content.
Will this work on the drum for 223 AR.
It says 9mm -45, but it also works on my S&W ez380…outstanding product!!
these are amazing
Thumb savers 👍🏼
This is kool but need something faster
Finally….a good video of this!!!!
These would do nothing but make the process slower. Is there anything akin to an ordinary stripper clip speed loader?
Absolutely worth every penny, save time and more importantly your fingers
