cheaper?



www.powercustom.com/lula/benchloader.htm

They look sweet, but $350 is too much.  $100 to $150 maybe.  It would definately be worth it to me for that.

Agree they look sweet.  Would really cut down on filling time and give you more shooting time.  Why $350.00??? I'll never own one at that price.  Must be some cool "Plastic used on the Shuttle" or something.

$350? They must be on crack. Personally I like spending part of my time at the range loading up mags.

Crack or maybe herion.  If they were smart they would lower there price in order to market to the civilian sector.  I imange that price is earmarked for the military, gov and le.  It amazes me everyday the prices the military gets charged.  I am thinking about doing one out of wood.  I just have to find one thick enough to allow room fo the slider and the bullets, 3/4 might do the trick.  I really wish I had access to a CNC!  Great just what I need one more thing to add to my to do list.

Yeah but instead of dropping the 30 rounds of ammo in to that widget before loading the mag you could just drop them into a regular LULA and it'll be loaded at the same time...

I like that, very simular, and a hell a lot cheaper.  Thanks for posting that.

What ever happened to the little gadget we had in the 70s that just dropped on the top rear of the mag, then the 10 round stripper clip went in and a quick push loaded 10, repeat till full? Cost all of a couple of bucks and fit in my pocket. I'd hate to carry these beasts around, but a nice gimmick I'm sure.

too add it to my toys

If someone made cheaper ammo on stripper clips that would be the ticket.  I have difficulty paying $150 to $200 per 1000 for stipper clip ammo when I can buy wolf for $90-100 per 1k.  It would be nice if every ammo company put theirs on stripper clips!

Never thought about that aspect of it. Uncle Sam was paying for my ammo back then. Course he also was providing me with M16, 1911A1, free room and board and a bi-weekly paycheck. Damn, why'd I get out?

Agreed.  The LULA is fast and easy.  Just get one and that table top loader will fade into your memory.
