I have an uplula I use for my M&P 9c. Those mags are hard to load without one.

I'm going to +1 myself on the Uplula. I got impatient waiting for my M&P Carry and Range kit to be in stock anywhere, so I looked into piecing together my own kit. I decided that to save money I would skip the Uplula, figured I didn't NEED it. Well before I could do it myself, the kit finally appeared and I got it, with the Uplula, and holy **** do I like it! Could I load the mags without it? Sure. But its worth it just for the time I save when I'm at the range. I pay for an hour, I don't want to spend 10-15 minuted reloading mags. Time spent loading is time spent not shooting.
Get the Uplula!

Any Gander Mountain, Cabelas, Bass Pro Shop, and probably most Local Gun Shops should have it. Otherwise a lot of sites offer free shipping.

Anybody wonder why the best magazine loaders ever were designed in Israel?
In Israel women are drafted into the IDF along with men. While barred from combat operations, (most serve as instructors, cadre, and administration) they still need to be able to load magazines as well as their male counterparts.
Of course it's also a benefit for older reservists.

I guess I fit the "older" part...and I sure do like my uplula! In fact I have two of them...one in my range bag, and one in my desk drawer. They are great!

The uplula is great if you have something to sit the mag on, but shooting in the field, I usually don't, so I keep two. If I have a bench to use or bed rail on the truck near by, I always use the uplula. If however I don't have anything to sit the mag on , the HKS Loader is very fast, and only $10.00.

Amen to this. I've been using an HKS with my M&P 9 FS since day one. It has handled around 1,500 rounds so far just like the pistol has...flawlessly.

Uplula is awesome. Definitely helps when you are breaking in a new magazine.

Uplula really pays off when you're fully loading your mags. Using your hands gets tough with 10+ rounds in the mag. Uplula makes short work of it.

+1 on the Uplula! The best feature is that one loader fits ALL my mags. I can go from my M&P45 to my M&P9c to my M&P40 and to my E Series 1911 and it loads them all.

Evening all. Hotter than blazes here in western Mass. What number HKS fits the m&p 9c. Just got it yesterday and only got about 4 in the mags. I've had HKS units for other pistols and like them better than the Upula. IMHO..

Heh, I love mine... I'm just lazy and its way easier and faster. Of course... it shows in how fast my M&P eats ammo.

Yeah, you gotta be careful about trash talking the UpLULA. 
Next you'll be saying you don't like broccoli and the Big Gorilla will get enraged....

Another vote for the Uplula. With my arthritic fingers/hands I can't get more than one or two rounds in my 9c's magazines. The spring in both is extremely tight. I now let the Uplula handle it.
