9mm Mag Loaders, What's Good?

outrider58 · Jan 22, 2017

I'm new to the 9mm. I pretty much have never owned one. I now have an AR pistol in 9mm and I need a mag loader that will work with all sizes of mags on up to 32 rounders. I am using Colt type mags. They are a PIA to load by hand! What do you experts out there like(or dislike)? Thanks!

Are they like regular handgun mags? If so I use an uplula mag loader, best thing I've ever used to load magazines.

They even have some pretty colors too if that's your fancy.

Fleabay is a decent source for them and I've even found some cheaper knockoffs on there but for the extra $$ I'd stick with the original.

Point of info: Those two links appear to be two different manufacturers' products. The Uplula in the second link is made by "Maglula", not "Magload," in the first link, according to the packaging on the Maglula Uplula I'm looking at right now. fyi

Sorry, and thanks for the correction. I did open both links, but didn't look closely at them, look almost identical to me. I own and recommend Maglula Uplula; haven't heard of the other. Same price, would be interesting to hear others opinion on the 'magload' one.

Plate Design loaders work great, even on the 9mm AR mags

Best one I've used, the Maglula Uplula. Got it in a bright color to find it easily in my range bag. Use it for .45 as well.

K31 · Jan 22, 2017

Loaders for .45 ACP are the best mag loaders.

Plate loaders are dumb, no matter what the caliber. You don't always have a perfectly flat surface to use it, and then you have find a way to carry it around. The always means a backpack.

The Uplula loader on the left works great on BOTH my 9mm and .45 mags--one mag loader for the majority of my pistol caliber shooting and it's fits in my pocket.

My Beta-C 5-round .223/5.56 loader on the right is another fast device that fits in my back pocket or a pocket on a battle belt.

The Beta-C loader is a plunger model--drop in 5 rounds, hit the plunger and repeat til the mag is full.

This Maglula is specfically for the Colt 9mm SMG mags. I have it and it works great.

Sure, I did a doubletake -- Springfield also has its own that comes with some xdm's; looks similar, but not identical.
