19RemY77 Posted January 16, 2020 Posted January 16, 2020 Hi all, Bought a cheap (£20) winding speed loader with AK adaptor. I filled and emptied it about 15 times to try and break in the spring but it only loaded half of mag capacity before making a crunching sound and nearly snapped the handle every time. It worked fine with a manual speed loader, so sent it back for a refund. My question is...Would a ODINS winding speed loader with adaptor be any better ? if not is there any other method filling the mags quickly. Thanks ; )
Supporters Adolf Hamster Posted January 16, 2020 Supporters Posted January 16, 2020 1st possibility is ammo quality, good ammo is noticably smoother. 2nd is i have heard plenty of stories of the clone odin's having problems especially with breaking the handles. all i can say is i've used an original M12 from as soon as they were launched and it's never had a problem with m4 or ak mags.
19RemY77 Posted January 16, 2020 Author Posted January 16, 2020 using good quality ammo so must have just been cheap rubbish. Will head over to the local shop and try out the Odin. Thanks for your reply
Skara Posted January 16, 2020 Posted January 16, 2020 I have an Odin clone and it's so flimsy I'm afraid of snapping it in half :P As soon as it dies I'll get the real deal. You should do the same.
19RemY77 Posted January 16, 2020 Author Posted January 16, 2020 lol.. tell me about it. just waiting for a few mags to arrive then going to try try, odin out b4 i buy it. Hopefully it wont be the same as its not cheap ?
Spoon987 Posted January 17, 2020 Posted January 17, 2020 I have an Odin speedloader and adaptor I use for my 200rnd AK midcaps. They’re pretty new and the Odin doesn’t fully fill them before the clutch starts slipping. It fills them like maybe 90% of the way, but I’m happy with that so I don’t top them off. But I did fill the mags a few times and leave them over night and that helped a lot.
19RemY77 Posted January 17, 2020 Author Posted January 17, 2020 That helps a lot thanks. By the way which mid caps are you usin and are they any good. Havent seen any 200 about ??
EvilMonkee Posted January 17, 2020 Posted January 17, 2020 Buy cheap buy twice. I have an original Odin and its superb not had an issue at all with my AK mags. Also, from a moral standpoint buy the original and support the person who developed it rather than these rip off copies.

Havent seen any 200 about ?? Sorry missed your reply here. I brought a box of 6 from taiwangun back in the Black Friday sales. I think they’re the Battleaxe ones. I’ve not yet used them in game yet but apart from the fact the the springs need breaking in they’re pretty good. I’ve had no feeding issues when I’ve been plinking on my back yard. They’re metal too which is a bonus.
