I have been practicing my magazine changes all day. I made this cheezy video:

Quick change

That's pretty impressive.

You might try the "use the fresh mag to push out the old one" trick as well.

Wow, that was gun slinger fast. I'm talkin Doc Hoilday fast.

I assume your dropping the empty mag from the rifle with your left thumb before seating the new full mag?

Thanks,

I'm using the "push out method". I'm using the fresh mag to push the old mag out of place. I know you can't see if very well.

That's excellent. What kind of mag pouch do you use?

You stopped moving on your "on the move change"

Posted: 6/18/2007 8:33:24 AM EDT

[#14]

Most impressive.

nice work. Would you not lose a lot of mags that way, just tossing them on the ground

From looking at the video, he's got the mag sticking out of his shorts or something... I'd like to see videos with chest pouches or belt pouches.

I couldn't tell -- are you doing a full rack of the charging handle with your off hand? If was so fast and smooth that it almost looked like all you were doing was releasing a locked-open bolt.

You are giving me a big head.

I am pulling the charging handle back all the way. It might be the VMG magazine grip that is helping me change so quick.

Good thing you put a slow mo in the video. Hehe...

Posted: 6/18/2007 7:48:50 PM EDT

[#21]

Thanks for showing that. It takes me two minutes to change an AK mag! I don't really shoot that much, and I'm always shooting a different family of weapons. I guess I need to settle on one carbine and one pistol and practice on those! Very slick method.

[#22]

Impressive....practice makes perfect.

You change mags faster on the AK than I can on the AR. Good job

Posted: 6/19/2007 7:27:39 AM EDT

[#24]

You've got me beat. Must practice now...

Posted: 6/19/2007 4:35:30 PM EDT

[#25]

Now ya made me go and see how fast I can do it.. I am not used to running the bolt back like that but watching how you did it, made me about 100% faster then I was before.. thanks for the video it helped a whole lot.

It's the begining of a White Zombie song. Can't remember which one.

yes technique is everything when it comes to this! I saw someone do a similar change on youtube, broke out my ak and immediately could replicate the quick changes. The charging handle w/ off hand thing is kinda awkward but there is no option!

well done!

What is this "VMG magazine grip" you refer to?
