Supporters M_P Posted August 20, 2019 Supporters Share Posted August 20, 2019 Recently purchased these as thought it'd be a handy little tool so thought i'd write up a quick review. It comes from a little company called 3D hatch, who I must say I'd never heard of but seemed like something that would be useful- and save my fingers if nothing else. It's quite a simple device and comes in black, red, blue or green with a small hole to attach some paracord or similar so you can tie to your vest or plate carrier to prevent loss. The underside is a bit 'rough and ready' though that could be down to the 3D printing process- not something I know anything about. Regardless, it doesn't affect the function of the product. Simple to use, locate the little notch on the inside and hook that between the base of the feed lips and the protruding edge of the magazine follower and pull down. The mag loader is tight enough to stay put without holding it down- assuming you don't knock it, and then allows for easy loading of BBs into the mag. As I said it's a rather simple device that solves a relatively minor problem, but for £5 it's hard to knock it. It's available for a huge number of pistol models, from Hicapas to Desert Eagles so worth checking out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Philby21 Posted August 20, 2019 Share Posted August 20, 2019 I've been thinking about one of these since they came up on another thread, thanks for the concise and excellent review. 👍 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supporters Gepard Posted August 20, 2019 Supporters Share Posted August 20, 2019 Seen these on eBay for a few weeks. Will definitely be buying one now! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Musica Posted August 20, 2019 Share Posted August 20, 2019 I posted one in the just purchased thread and got slated for it 🤣 Your thumbs will thank you. My TM 5.1 magazines work with the WE model from below. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/183856191454 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AK47frizzle Posted August 20, 2019 Share Posted August 20, 2019 Interesting that there's a market for it. I've personally never had a problem with holding down the followers. Though, I have quite hard nails and flexible thumbs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supporters M_P Posted August 20, 2019 Author Supporters Share Posted August 20, 2019 I've never had big issue either to be honest but after a full day of playing pistols only it can be a bit sore so figured it'd help out. That said I have a few friends who do find it somewhat painful during regular loading I see it as at worst a bit less fiddly and at best something that saves a little pain so worth £5 for either to me.
