Magazine Speed Loader

I recently started using the MakerShot Magazine Speed Loaders, and they have significantly improved my experience at the range. Here are some key points that stood out to me: Custom Fit: These speed loaders are designed specifically for each selected magazine, ensuring a perfect fit. This customization makes loading magazines much smoother and faster compared to universal loaders1. Ease of Use: The design allows for quick and easy loading without straining your fingers. The ergonomic shape fits comfortably in your hand, making the process of loading rounds into the magazine effortless2. This is especially beneficial during extended shooting sessions when repetitive loading can become tiresome. Durability: Made from high-quality polymer, these speed loaders are built to last. They are sturdy and can withstand regular use without any signs of wear and tear2. The compact design also makes them easy to carry in your range bag or pocket. Performance: The speed loaders work flawlessly with a variety of calibers and magazine types. Whether you’re using a 9mm, .40 S&W, or .45 ACP, the MakerShot loaders handle them all with ease1.

They save time and effort, allowing you to spend more time shooting and less time loading2. The investment is well worth it for the convenience and efficiency they provide. Overall, the MakerShot Magazine Speed Loaders are a must-have for any shooter looking to enhance their range experience. Their custom fit, ease of use, and durability make them a top choice for both novice and experienced shooters.

Gave me the ability to load all 15 rounds into magazines which I could not do without it

Pros: Inexpensive, gets the job done Cons: A little awkward at first As others have noted, this is not a universal loading tool. I purchased the one designated for a P365 and was able to load the magazine easily. The magazines have very stiff springs (I have the 10-round mags) and getting the last 2 or 3 rounds in can be difficult. This tool makes it straightforward. Also as others have noted, there is a little "trick" to seating the round - fully depress the follower with the loading tool, push the round in as far as it will go, then slightly release the pressure on the loader to allow it to slide upward, while maintaining pressure (both down and in) on the nose of the round. The round will then seat fully. Once you have done this a few times, you will be able to load quickly and without fuss.

I bought a new handgun that holds 12 shots in the magazine and I have 2 extra magazines for when I shoot. Reloading was a real pain. This thing works great and really made the process quick and easy. Love it. Highly recomend.

This is a great tool, and I definitely recommend it, but there are some caveats: I purchased this for a Sig Sauer P365XL. I had several brand new magazines and this would not work! After several youtube searches to find a video that really explained how the device works I determined that the new magazines were to blame. The springs were simply to stiff so I found a thin blunt device I could use to press down on the middle of a cartridge (the handle of a letter opener) that complimented the enormous amount of pressure the speed loader allows to be exerted on the back of the cartridges. Once I figured out the process I was able to load 4 out of 5 new magazines with relative ease. The fifth magazine would not allow more than three rounds despite all the mechanical leverage the speed loader helps with so I ended up disassembling the magazine, resolved whatever manufacturing issue was related to the spring being incorrectly installed, and then was able to successfully load the 5th magazine to capacity. Then I figured "Welp I have another gun, Springfield Armory XDS9, and by their very nature 9mm magazine must be reasonably similar so why not try the speed loader on them?" I grabbed several magazines that are well used (and double stack to boot) and the speed loader worked as well as it does in the most complimentary manufacturer videos which means I expect that after the new P365 magazines get a bit more worn I won't need a special process to load them anymore. :-) No, the fit on the XDS9 mags wasn't as perfect but it didn't matter. In the end this is a great tool that makes loading magazines a much simpler process and eliminates thumb pain.

Good helped me load my gun faster

I bought this loader because the one I got with my pistol was a very generic fit, and was very difficult to use. The pistol is an older Sig P938 9mm single action. It looks like a shrunk down 1911, shoots reliably with no problems. The loader had some minor fitting problems. There was too much room front to back that I shimmed with a thin strip of cardboard that worked well, and the reduced movement helped loading. The width was perfect. The problems are not so much a fault in the loader design or material, but are with the Sig magazine Itself. One issue with the magazine is the tension in the magazine spring is very stiff. Also the lips of the magazine that hold the top cartridge only hold about 1/3 of the bullet case. The cartridges are easily knocked out when touched. All that said, the pistol loads and reloads 100%, so Sig designed it very well. However it is difficult to load. Once the movement in the loader was reduced it worked pretty well, considering what it had to work with. If you are not familiar with how the loader works, the loader slips over the magazine and a little plastic piece pushes the top cartridge down, making room for another cartridge into the magazine. The short magazine lips have trouble holding the new cartridge until it can be pushed further into the magazine. Fiddly, but it works. If I were to change anything in the loader design it would be to make the pusher piece thinner, and maybe move it back 1/16 of an inch. The loader is inexpensive and sturdy, and I will use it as long as I have the Sig. I thought enough of the quality and material that I ordered a magazine holder to protect my magazine. Good company, good products.

So easy to use. Simple function and process. Durable hard plastic that should hold up for many rounds. I've loaded probably 200 rounds with it so far and my fingers are thanking it. Get one and go have some Fun!

Super Sache. Am Anfang noch ein wenig schwergängig. Nach den ersten 100 Patronen läufts wie geschmiert. Habe ein wenig Sprühöl draufgemacht und damit lief es dann besser. Ist später nicht mehr notwendig.

Helped out tons! Decent quality

Poor quality. Way over priced.didn’t work well.

It was what I ordered. I received it on time. Works great! I have 8 shot SIG P220 .45 mags, and that last 7 and 8th round were an ordeal to get in with just my fingers alone. It used to take me 20 minutes to load all 5 of my mags with lots of pinched fingers and swearing. Now I can do all 5 in under 5 minutes. This is just a simple piece of plastic, but well worth the money in my opinion.

Good
