Yea I was looking in another discussion and they made mention to the Maglula bench loader and I thought about getting one till I saw the price Then I got to thinking I could try and make my own. I am going to try another and give it the curved area where the rounds sit. I am not quite done with this one yet I am going to put a piece across the front of the mag and incorporate a mag catch to it that way it will hold any AR mag made.

Very cool, how much did it cost you to make if you don't mind me asking.  "Looks" like about $25 in materials. All I see is a piece of plastic and a small aluminum block. And of course the time to cut and assemble. Cool project though. Want to share the specs?

Specs? I would like to build one of those If you have access to the tools to do it it is pretty simple to do. I don't have specs but you just cut out an area the size of a bullet and have to leave material above the bullet and base so they won't pop out. Then cut a recess for the magazine to fit in and a pusher and your done. Quoted:

Where I work they like to throw away small scraps of "stuff" and I will tend to hang on to some of it. I have enough of it left to do 3 more and 1 piece big enough to try the one with the arch. |

I would definitely be interested in seeing some still pictures of it if you don't mind (then I'll leave you alone, I promise  )
I just may have to order me a junk of delron or something along those lines and give this a try in my shop.

Pic is from the back end I put a stud in to prevent the pusher piece from sliding out the back. This view also gives the profile of the slot cut. 
The front edge of the pusher sticks out a little to be sure to push the last round all the way in. 
Top view. 
From back with a bullet inserted. 
Closer shot of the pusher. 
View from the magazine end.

Have you tried to make one for the S&W MP15/22? It took me forever to load those things...I'll have to give one of these a try for the 22. Many thanks for the extra pictures! I agree Heath...You da man! .22 is a whole nother monster you have to push the rounds down and then back under the lips 1 at a time. |
