There is nothing glamorous about loading 30-round AR mags, but if you plan on shooting America's rifle, its an unavoidable labor. The business gets a lot easier though with the help of the new Mag Pump, a magazine-loading device that features a 90-round hopper, doesn't require strict cartridge alignment or staging, and will save your thumb the chore of pushing cases and scraping magazine lips.

Check out this week's gear video as Joe Kurtenbach loads up with the Mag Pump and breaks down its features.
