Save Your Thumbs with the MagPump Magazine Loader - SHOT Show 2018

The MagPump mag loader retails for $149.99.

No one likes handloading magazines.  It’s tedious.  It’s time-consuming.  And it does a number on your thumbs.  With the MagPump magazine loader all that goes away.

To operate this contraption all you do is dump your loose ammo into the hopper.  In any old fashion.  No need to orient the rounds in any particular direction.  Attach your mag to the dock.  Pump the handle, one, two, three… until the magazine is completely loaded.  Easy peasy.

Also, don’t fret about over-pumping or over-loading.  A built-in safety system stops when the mag is full.  So cool.  I know, this product sells itself.

  • SIG – 320, P224, P226, P228, P229, P250, SP2022, SP2340, SP2009

    Looks nice, just not 150 nice. Granted, it seems to work well, and that is not going to come cheap. But 150 would buy ten extra mags (magpul G17’s on sale at 12.95 each). So, I just load them up the night before at home.

    And nobody makes or uses single stack mags?

    • S.H. Blannelberry January 24, 2018, 9:48 am

      Give em time. They just launched the 9mm. I’m sure they’ll come up with a solution for single stack mags.

      I sure could use one for my Springfield Armory 1911 Mil-Spec .45 auto. I wreck my thumb every time I hit the range-which is often.

        Dave P326; just go to Cabelas and purchase an Uplula mag loader. Can’t miss and only $39.99. You can load a number of different mags with it. Single and double stacked 45acp, 9mm , and more. fingers are just fine now great tool you will love it.
