Cole Potter's Review of Elite Tactical Systems Universal Pistol Magazine Loader
Don't give up on this product when it does not work at first. Do not give up!
My wife and I watched the instruction video, we applied oil where they showed to apply gun oil, we inserted my SA XDs 9mm magazine and COULD NOT get ammo to feed into the magazine. She tried. I tried MULTIPLE times. The bullets simply would NOT load into the magazine but instead just fell out onto the table. I was SO frustrated I packaged it up to return for refund. Then I read that other people had encountered similar challenges. I decided to try again with my Critical Defense hollow points that are a bit shorter. I dribbled more oil inside the ETS loader until oil was dripping out and pooling all over my table. Again I aligned my single-wide 9mm magazine into the oversized well (accommodates double-wide) and pushed my mag in forcefully until I DID hear the second click, seating my mag inside. Shockingly, all eight hollow points fed into my magazine! The second time was even easier. Then I began feeding my taller duty rounds and they also loaded into my magazines. Now I'm able to load my magazines as quickly and easily as shown in their video. So... DON'T GIVE UP!
SUGGESTION #1: Midnight requisition some of your daughter's hair scrunchies (or elastic bands). Slide the plunger grip down the slot (as if feeding bullets into magazine) and elastic wrap the loose handle to your devise. Otherwise it will get separated and lost. Keep these two together.
SUGGESTION TO ETS: Lube these suckers up before you ship them to us! Load a clip or two before you ship them to ensure they will work once your customers receive them. Stop frustrating the people who are trying to make your product successful. Thanks in advance.

Pros:
- It eventually works great.
Cons:
- Takes a lot of oil and persistence to get the product to work the first time. Should not be this difficult. Also, ETS does not provide any means to keep the two pieces from getting separated and lost. A simple fix was overlooked. Also, the bullet impr
Best Used for:
- Speed-loading dual-stacked magazines since single-stack fits as well as a skinny *** inside a loose *****.
