    Default Magazine loader - Worth it or not?

    Hi all

    I just saw that there is a device making loading of magazines easier apparrently, its called a "magazine loader"
    It is a bit of a pain manually loading my Beretta 9mm magazines - hectically strong spring offering a lot of resistance :(
    Would this device make it easier to load the rounds into the magazine?
    Would this device also make it faster to load the rounds into the magazine?
    Would it be worth it investing in such a device?

    Thank you in advance,

    Armed1

    I have been using an UpLula universal mag loader for a while now. Definitely makes mag loading easier on the thumbs. I now battle to load mags without the UpLula.

    I use same, I get kak from some of the boys about it and that one should rather build up strength in the fingers this allows for better firearm control...
    I recently developed something called trigger thumb in my right hand and cannot straighten my thumb nor load mags without it so have gone back to using it.

    Doooooo Iiiiiiit!

    I use mine all the time. loading 5 mags on a range day is no issue, but loading 15mags takes its toll as you mentioned.

    Glocks use to have a Loader thingy in the box at one time. Not sure if they still do.

    On a lighter note. If I make observation.
    It seems the new generation that uses smartphones and tablets. Have less finger Muscles to load magazines. lol

    +1 on the Uplula. Well worth the money. If you have any issues with your thumbs it makes a world of difference.
