Finally, after ordering UPLULA from MAGLULA Ltd. (http://www.maglula.com/) directly (from Guy Tal, Sales and Marketing Manager) (I live in Israel), it arrived after some 2 weeks, since Post Office was on strike :sad:

The following pictures is from their site:

The product is great! When practicing outside on a range, most of the time for 2 hours, I need to reload around 10-15 times my G19 magazines. At takes around 35-40 seconds in the beginning, but my fingers hurt as well.

I just tried (only once, so no statistical relevance ;) ), it took me less then 25sec to load my G19 magazine with 15 bullets.

This is great! I can't wait next Friday to get to the range, and instead waising time on reloading, to shoot :supergrin:

Just wanted to share my experience and of course to be proud that this is a local product!

I strongly recommend. :thumbsup:

It's a neat tool, but no inprovement over the Glock factory tool and mine wouldn't load the last round in my G19 mags. The instructions warn you it may not load the last round in all mags. It would load all 17rds in my G17 mags though.

If you have different pistols and need a loader the uplula is handy, just not for Glocks.

I purchased one, more out of curiosity than anything else. My initial impressions are:

1) Very well made & performs as advertised...quick and easily loads most mags from Glock to Keltac P3AT with equal ease.

2) For me on Glock mags, not really faster or easier than the HKS and very little faster than the little Glock loader. Speed probably increases over time with the UPLULA as the mechanism while very easy, is also a bit different...(and, you can only throw in rounds just so fast).

3) A bit pricey but in all fairness, if someone desires a single loader for a variety of different mags, it's in a class of it's own. For loading (only) a single type of mag I can't say the price is justified over the HKS which is half that of the UPLULA.

I got one incoming as well. It does look like a handy tool especially for a variety of mags.

Midway has had pretty reasonable prices on these.
Also, as one ages and a bit of arthritis creeps in, these little helpers can make your time at the range a lot more fun.
