Was trying to find a specific youtube button or embed option.. Turns out you just copy and paste the url and it auto embeds. Been a long time since I used forums!

Anyone found a UK distributor of these yet?

The Odin Innovations M12 Sidewinder Speed Loader replicates the outlook of the real steel version but this Airsoft replica is an awesome addition to speed loaders. It fits into double magazine pouches and holds 1600 rounds. It is also very easy to use, just insert your M4 (AEG) magazine and crank away. Not got an M4? - Z Shot are releasing CAD files of for the AK, G36 and MP5 magazine adapters so if you have your own 3D printer, you can make your own!

It looks like a real AR15 mag speedloader (allegedly).

If only they worked with GBBR M4 mags I would get it in a heartbeat

I tried mine for the first time at the weekend. Really simple to use. Much much much quicker than my TM speed loader

Anybody else bought these ?

They seem to have gone off the boil with most retailers no longer stocking them and only LWA and Redwolf having some left.

I have one. Its great IMO - works with my KWA and Magpul midcaps, as well as all the random midcaps Ive acquired over the years. Really useful for MilSims or quick turnarounds at games.

 

[Sacarathe]

Bought a new gun right after buying it. :/ Works well though.

 

[Baz JJ]

Thanks.

Ive just noticed that fire support have a load.

Anyone tried these on TM recoil mags ?

I asked elsewhere and within 5 mins 2 people said yeah they are fine and another 2 so said no ??

 

[Baz JJ]

Im seriously thinking about getting one as I hate thumb loaders and usually use a stick and peashooter loader on my mid caps which takes ages and inevitably ends up with bbs all over the floor.

I dont have TM recoil so cant help with a trial test.

Ive read that the clutch sometimes needs adjustment on these and that the cranks have broken due to <crap glue>, so I am a little reticent to spend £60 on a piece of kit that wont earn its keep.

I suppose like a lot of airsoft stuff, it will end up being another experiment that may or may not work.

It'll work with TM recoil mags but they don't click into place like normal AEG mags do. You have to hold them in place but it definitely loads them fine.

Right, Ive pressed the buy button, taken the plunge and we will see if I live to regret it or not.

It most certainly does earn it's keep.

• One Wind is the equivalent of three thumb presses,
  
• you need not hold the magazine,
  
• it holds 1600 bbs rather than 100-200
  
• you no long need to hold the magazine,
  
• when the magazine is full you can tell instantly instead of wasting time experimenting/risking damage by forcing every last bb,
  

Loading one m4 midcap with the odin vs the TM pistol speedloader I'd say the odin is about 20% more efficient.

Loading 5-10 M4 midcaps with the odin I would say it's 80% more efficient.

Loading 1000 BBs into midcaps in under 2 minutes is impossible with any of the other speed loaders.

I'd say in terms of time gained vs earning ability it pays for it self after 10,000 BBs. But it saves you 80% of the time you previously spent.

Though you might drop a few more bbs.

Thanks buddy
