The cammenga speed loader.

REL™ 223
$39.95
Designed to work in conjunction with the following rifle magazines. AR-15, MINI 14, M-16,Galil. Plus most 223 Rifle magazines.

bunghole had one of these at ETH's last
shootout. I just had to get me one.
It was a real bitch to find it.
Bushmaster.com was supposed to have them
but they didn't know what I was talking about.

cammenga's web site was down and I could not
and don't like to paste my credit card over the
internet.
cammenga.com/

So I emailed them and they gave me their 800 number.
It will be here in 3 days.
I highly recommend this product.
Worked like a charm for us.

Here is the number to call them:
1-800-468-9553 and give your order to Mike Pastoor .
You could also fax and order in to 1-616-392-9432

They also have them for AK's Uzi's and others.
Go check it out.

I got this exact reloader in the latest Gift Exchange from Willy's Wagon. This thing is the shizznit!!
I have had it for a couple of weeks now and have been to the range twice. It will load 20 rd. magazines as fast as you can line up the ammo in the tray. For 30 rd. magazines, load the firat 20 rds. then place the last 9 or 10 rds. and load those.
As a heads up to anyone that I get their name in upcoming Gift Exchanges....you are gattin his as a gift!

Have it your way, but I've done the stripper
clip way and this beats them hands down.

Just passin the info to my brothers in arms.

There's just something about an ammo can full of ammo on stripper clips that gives me a warm feeling inside.

I've seen those and they are nice, but part of the fun I get from my AR is loading the mags.
That thing loads too fast - kills some of the "thrill" for me.
I did get a LULA loader, it saves my thumbs but still "slow" enough for me to enjoy.

I may get one just to keep for when I need to load fast, but in no rush.

I have the stripper clip version, it works great. Better on the 30 than the 20 round mags, for some reason.

I was about to ask how it works, then I found this. So instead I'll ask "how's the construction/workmanship/matertials?". "Does it look like it'll hold up to repeated use?"

It seemed like it would. But I guess I would have to
use it for a year or so to tell you the truth.
Email bunghole, he has had one for a while.

There didn't seem to be any breakable parts.

Yes. The cammenga loads FAST but no unload.
The LULA loads quick, as fast as you can drop a round and rock the arm, but has an unload that is lightning fast.
I like that for when I need to unload a mag for swapping.
The choice is yours. I'd get BOTH! I plan on getting the cammenga for myself to go with my LULA for when I need superfast load.

Well I'll be damn.
I explain this to the phone rep as clear as I
could. He didn't know what I was talking about.
Anyway, I got mine coming. It will be here Friday from cammenga.

I think I am gonna order the other one,
just because I want to.
