Well my buddy downtownv sent my one of the AR/AK loaders he’s got , and he wanted me to check it out and see what I thought of it. First this is built outstanding, I have a lot of wood working machines and could make one but it would take me way more time to make than what he gets for them. So for loading a 30 round mag once the rounds are in the loading position you pull on the handle 2 seconds maybe. The more you use it the faster you will get putting the rounds in position. This beats the Caldwell AR Mag Charger hands down. Showed this to my buddies at the auto repair shop, and they are all gun nuts in the shop. They all liked it so much so the one guy bought the one I showed to them and the other guy wanted one to so downtownv had to send me more. This thing does what a toaster does to sliced bread. This is definitely the hot set-up for guys that like shooting AR’s and AK's. So if anyone is looking for a good loader for AR or AK you should check this out. So that’s my take one this loader, you can check them out at

Clearly, that goes for me as well, Thanks Harry!
Harry, has anyone approached you to being a "Hand" model?
I had a Cammenga Loader that required Gorilla strength to shove the rounds into a mag, let alone the rounds "Tipping" in the loading process. It was a complete awkward non solution.
I had my daughter try the Podavach and she never seen an AR mag in her life, 30 rds slid in like a hot knife thru butter.
Anyone interested lemme know.
I offer a full refund if you aren't happy!

That is really slick but at this point I don't shoot enough to justify the price. Not saying the price is too high though.

I tried to convince our SWAT guys and firearms instructors to get a couple of these. They said in a lot of their drills they only load 4 or 5 rounds so there's a mandatory reload etc. They said their biggest issue in reloading is getting the stupid little boxes open.
At this point I don't shoot enough to justify one either but I can see getting one at some point. Looks like a slick set up and far superior to some of the ones I've seen that were clearly junk.
This looks first class and it's endorsed by Harrylee the hand model!

Geez you guys are making my pinky finger blush:blushing: But really anything that saves your fingers is good by me. Now back in the day we all used to load our 1911 mags by hand and I got older and the old fingers just split and bleed I needed a better way. So when I saw the UpLULA mag loader thought the $35 price tag was high, but finally got one. Ain't a speed loader but makes the whole loading process better yes a bit faster but with no pain. And now with all the double stack mags it’s even harder on the old hands. Now I never go to the range without my Uplula loader. I know a lot of guys the day before load the AR mags the day before like 5 or 6 mags. Man that’s a lot of thumb pushing! Now for the hands they used to be young and good-looking, now old and scared up. BUT they think young!!!:)

There's a youtube a buddy of mine is making, featuring his 7 yo daughter loading mags... BTW, she's quite a good shot!
