Maglula Uplula magazine loaders.

I am wanting to buy a magazine loader for filling my 9mm clips on my S&W Shield. The Uplula loader looks exactly like what I want. However, there is a notice on their website that it will not work on a S&W 7 shot, 9mm SS clip. So I am assuming that means it won't work with the Shields 7 round clips. Is this correct? Has anyone here in the forums used the Uplula clip loader on their S&W Shield 7 round 9mm clip? I am seriously hoping it will work as I have a lot of trouble filling the clip to full capacity with my fingers and thumb.

They make several different models. There is one for single stack that will work on 380 and 9mm http://www.midwayusa.com/product/516...-polymer-black

It will work with your Shield's magazines and work very well.
I use mine with compact single stack mags all the time with zero issues.

I've used the single stack version a ton on my walther PPS 9mm mags and LCP .380 mags. Far and away the best mag loaders on the market.

After you use an Uplula loader you will wonder how you ever loaded a magazine without one. Although the generic version supplied by several handgun makers works just about as well.

Very cool, and thank you! Getting that last bullet in the clip is darn near impossible for my thumbs, so I'm glad to hear it will work. Thanks for the feed back!
