The Mag Charger Universal Pistol Loader from Caldwell Shooting Supplies puts an end to thumbing rounds into a magazine, and instead requires only a simple squeeze. Two rotating lugs and a rear tensioning screw facilitate a snug fit for magazines large or small, single- or double-stack, designed for cartridges from 9 mm Luger to .45 ACP—and most .380 ACP. After dropping a fresh round into the loading port, just squeeze the lever to press the cartridge into the magazine’s feed lips and then fully seat it to the rear. Price: $48.
