Ergo mag loader vs HKS mag loader?? - XDTalk Forums - Your HS2000/SA-XD Information Source!

I'm looking for opinions on both... Which is better and will last the test of time? Also, what are the +'s and -"s of each?

Yah $10, but I'd rather only buy one that lasts longer then testing the whole damn market LOL

Thanks!

I have the HKS for my XD40. I works great, is all plastic and does feel like it is stressed when loading the last few rounds. You get good leverage with this unit and it fits your hand OK. This is the only loader I ever had though.

A guy at the range told me that the Cambi brand loader is higher quality and uses metal instead of plastic for the most part.

The HKS works fine but like I said, it does feel stressed at times, almost like it will break. The plastic looks pretty tough though and it doesn't bend or anything like that.

Cool, thanks for the reply!

How about tossing in the Cambi speed loader into the review as well?

I also use the HSK model with no problems.

+1 on the HKS.

For full-length mags, I feel the HKS is the way to go. For the subcompact mags, the top-style loaders work well. Just my HO.

I have that one for my Ruger.. but being that I have a sub compact the mag stop is a wee bit too long. I need something shorter
