Magazine loaders for 7.62x39 or, have you ever tried...
« on: January 03, 2023, 05:35:43 PM »
Has anyone ever tried using the Chinese AK stripper clip loaders on AR mags that take the x39 round? Or put another way...

Has anyone who has an AR chambered in 7.62x39 ever tried using the AK-47 loading tool, that allows for loading with SKS stripper clips, to load their AR mags?

I ask because I am thinking about switching over to the AR mag-well module for my Ruger American Ranch so I can use AR mags, instead of the more difficult to insert and more expensive Mini-30 mags. Thought it would be nice if this tool works so as to make it easier to load the AR mags.

Here's a pic of what I mean

I've used the pictured AK-mag loaders on the AK mags before but not on the AR mags. Since I started using the Israeli MagLula on my AK mags, I quit trying to use the stripper clip loading method for AK mags. I'm pretty sure they made a loader for the AR style mags, too. I don't know if you tried that MagLula, or not?
Just throwing that out there, GG!   thumb1
