Stripper Fast Loaders

[fhenry]

What are you guys using for loaders that work good with AR stripper clips? I know vegassmg had one at the MG shoot but I forgot to ask what brand it was.

I think mine's a Carmenga, but I'm not sure they're available anymore.

I also have a LULA loader that I like a lot.

The loader that comes with the Beta C mags is another good option.

The stripper LULA looks really nice.

Didn't even think about the Beta one....I keep mine all packed up so out of sight/out of mind I guess.

That strip lula looks real cool on the video.

The strip LULA looks very efficient and it's priced right. If you're dedicated enough to pre-load stripper clips at home, this is a great way to go.

I went ahead and ordered one of those, we'll see how it works but I think it'll be great.

FWIW I also ordered a loader for my Black Dog Machine .22LR AR mags and one for 10/22s (both from Black Dog). Anxious to see how they work (especially the one for the BDM AR mags).

Thanks again for the help.

I'm 'gonna order a Black Bog loader myself... Just haven't gotten around to it.
I've got one for my 10/22 mags and it works great.

I've also got a M-60 Joe loader for my skinny AR-15 Ciener .22 mags and it's FANTASTIC. It should be as I paid over a hundred bucks for the thing. users.zoominternet.net/~picplace/loader_costs.htm

Got in all 3 loaders I ordered today.

The 2 loaders for the .22LR stuff are an improvement over using your thumb but nothing really to get excited about.

The Strip Lula however, is ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC! I works exactly like shown in that video. I kept waiting for something to hang/bind up (especially on the last round in the mag) but it never happened. The thing operates smooth as silk and is small/compact. If it holds up over time it'll be one of the most appreciated/used items in my AR toolkit.

Thanks a million for the referring me that way.

ETA: It loads loose rounds just as well as rounds on strippers.
