Following the success of the AR-15 Mag Charger, which won an American Rifleman 2015 Golden Bullseye for Accessory of the Year, Caldwell Shooting Supplies (a Battenfeld Technologies brand) has introduced the AK (7.62x39) Mag Charger. Designed to hold 50 rounds from any common 50-round ammo box, the charger works the same as the AR-15 Mag Charger: Simply align the bullet tips with holes in the Mag Charger and dump them in. Specially designed indexing tabs align all the rounds in the loader at the same time, eliminating the need to handle each round. All you need to do next is insert your AK magazine into Mag Charger and manipulate the plunger back and forth. With each stroke, five rounds are loaded. In as few as 15 seconds, you can load 50 rounds into two AK magazines. The device is compatible with 7.62x39 mm ammo. For more, visit  BTIbrands.com
