+1 for UpLULA!!! Even though I don't NEED one, these things are amazing!

I know your joking... but will never move to California due to the state's socialist view on most everything.
1) Guns - only ceryain ones legal and only 10 rounds in mag!!
2) No other state's CCH licenses allowed and no other state's recognize California's (that I know of).
3) Gasoline - has to be a certain type and formulation - drive's cost up!!
4) Social welfare spending - to dam high.
5) Taxation - too high, that's why people & companies are leaving the state.
6) State has asked Federal government for 8 billion (cut 8 billion first, then lests talk).
Hey... come to Kansas where high capacity mags are OK and CCH licenses are readily allowed and encouraged by the law enforcement community!!!

with any new mag. it will be hard to get the last few in, i suggest loading the mag. as full as you can and letting it sit that way for a few days to help soften the spring, the quick loader does help at first but eventually they load easily without any tool.

+1 on the above. I had the same problem when I first got mine. If you can manage to get all 12 rds in the mag, just let it sit for a few days. It will soften up much quicker than you think....

I just purchased a Butler Creek Lula loader today. Is it any different than an Uplula?
