Got my UpLULA in the USPS yesterday.

FANTASTIC!!!

Works like a champ.

Amazon Marketplace had it for $23.95 with free shipping.
I'm real tmpted to get another at that price so I have one for home and one for the range bag.

I can't think of anything shooting related (other than a P&R Smith M19) I could recommend more.

It works 100% as claimed - - which is so much more than you can say about most things these days.

This thing is the "Kreg Pocket Hole Jig" of the shooting world. Simple & works exactly like it should.
 
I do agree.

And they sell 2-packs of an extra part, which snaps on the bottom is sized just right to align a 1911 single stack magazine. Although you do not need it to use the UPLULA on single stack magazines, it does help.

I love mine, at the range i've let other try them and they too are sold.

More shooting, less shoving makes for a better day at the range.
 
These things are great, especially with brand new high-capacity magazines for some guns. While maybe not an UpLULA, some guns do come with their own loading devices.
 
I sometimes use mine when loading several (8 to 10) 1911 mags in preparation for a range trip. Seems to work fine without any additional attachments. REALLY helpful with double stack mags.
 
I've used a bunch of loading devices but the uplula works the best.
Most of the others use the thumb or such to load with and my arthritic hands just won't take much of that.
Just way easier to load with a uplula and it seems to use with any mag I've come across!:cool:

I've got some arthritis in my hands but even if I didn't, repeatedly loading stiff high-capacity magazines can be brutal on the first knuckle of my thumb. Once it gets inflamed, it just makes everything around it worse. An important trick is to keep inflammation down in the first place. Having the UpLULA stand in for my thumb has been brilliant.

Like all the other assorted doodads that come with new guns, those other loading devices just end up stored in the original case up on a shelf.
 
No doubt about it, they're a great gizmo to have.

I had purchased an off brand that was said to be specific for the Shield, and within about 6 or 8 magazine loadings it broke, the replacement that was sent did the same thing.

I've been using a cheap universal that I picked up at a gun show for $10 that so far has held up just fine. When it breaks, I'll just bite the bullet and purchase the real deal.

My $6.00 glock loader came with my 19 gen4. Was a little stiff for the first 4 or 5 times but now works smooth and easy. I almost bought the $30.00 plus one but haven't seen the need.
 
es, the UpLULA is great. Works as intended. Pretty sure that the OP's is a knock-off.

I triple checked it before I opened it to make sure.
