I have been looking for a Sten mag loader, what have the rest of you had good results with?  I just found one that CDNN carries, have any of you used it or have any experience with it?  Who else carries them?  Thanks.

The one I bought is from them and it works excellent!! If you are going to load Stens this is a must have tool!!

What HighlandMac said....

Here is a pic of the one I got for my M11 at the crossroad show a few weeks ago.. It makes life much more fun. [uzi]

OR, if you are cheap like me....

If you have an extra Glock mag loader (9mm or .40 cal) you can cut off the front end of it and it will perfectly accommodate the Sten mags.  I never use the Glock mag loaders anyway.

HighlandMac has it. The British Box type. I have a Sten Mk.II with 34 magazines. I have tried a couple mag loaders and this is the one to buy.

CDNN has sten mag loaders for $4.99.  They are designed and made in Finland.  I just ordered 2 and I'll let you guys know if it works.  They also have Uzi mag loaders for $ 2.99.  I ordered 2 of those also.

The CDNN loaders do work, but are a pale second compared to the box/ring type loader pictured above.  With the box/ring type loader, I can load sten mags literally as fast as I can push cartridges into the mag - under 30 seconds for a full sten mag if you're trying.
