9mm Single Stack Magazine Loader
Maglula UpLULA 9mm Pistol Magazine Loader and Unloader (UP60B)
Loading magazines is not that painful if you are only loading a couple at a time. But if you are loading magazine after magazine to get ready to go to the range, or even worse while at the range, it can get tedious. Because of this we like to have magazine loaders for all of our assorted magazines. The criteria that we use to evaluate 9mm single stack magazine loaders are: 1) caliber, 2) can it upload and download, 3) ease of use, 4) commonality with our other loaders and 5) price. Although there are various companies selling magazine loaders on the market, the company that seems to have the widest variety and, in our opinion, best design is Maglula. So that we didn’t have to figure out how to operate a bunch of loaders that use different approaches we standardized on Maglula loaders wherever possible. Since the Maglula UpLULA 9mm Pistol Magazine Loader and Unloader was designed for loading and unloading virtually all 9mm Luger up to .45ACP single and double stack magazines, 1911’s from all manufacturers and most .380ACP double-stack mags - it fits both of our handguns and really makes life easier. You can buy this loader at midwayusa.com.
