update:
just finished assembling ,and calibrating each one and all packaged up ready to ship, just need to print everyone's address label and boot these baby's off. i will be sending them all out by friday.
the instruction's are not completed yet so im working on a short video to show how to use it and calibrate the feed tube tip if necessary . it seems each brand of cartridge has its own caracteristics
i will post the link here on the forum so you have some kind of reference to help you with. and i will be here to answer any questions also
i hand tested each one but , its like selling a pre set scope
its still might need adjustments especially after shipping.
so if it doesn't work right out of the box don't stress it just needs a little adjustment to the tip to align the feed into the magazine.
 
Awesome Skunk! Love when plans come to fruition! Let me know if you need my address again, though I'm sure you have kept good records. :-)
 
working on some kind of informal training video to show how to use it, how it should work, and how to get it to work properly.
please bare with me im under a big crunch right now and will try to post a link to video for this week end. looks like some of you guys will have them for the week end!!!!
I hope you all get them to work properly the first try, but ounce they are set they work "slick"
cant wait for the reviews!!!! I think?:eek:
 
Skunk, just got my loader via FedEx! Here's a pic, thanks for the shirt! Props to you and the nod to Majorlk.

I'll be posting a review soon!

EDIT: Here's my review.

The loader is made of sturdy black plastic. The preloading block is lightweight enough to warrant carrying in a range bag, yet hefty enough to throw at an assailant as a last ditch effort, should you need to. It also has rubber grips on the bottom to prevent slipping on the table. The loading tube is lightweight aluminum and is adjustable in the magazine mount. Be careful tossing this in your bag, as it could bend if you're not careful. The magazine mount fits like a glove and serves its purpose well.

I DO recommend watching the YouTube video in the first post of this thread to assist in loading. I was able to reliably load several magazines consecutively after only two tries. (Beware, the last round may give you some trouble if you load too fast. The first try failed because I neglected to attach the magazine to the magazine mount prior to loading up the tube, and I had .22lr all over my floor. :-) The second try, I had to play around with the orientation of the feed tube in relation to the magazine. I found that it worked best if the tube touches the magazine feed lips. (You'll see what I'm talking about when you get yours) It takes two loads to top off a 25rd magazine, but this is acceptable considering the length of the tube and the need to keep it somewhat compact. The only thing I would probably change in production is the feed tube. It could use some finishing, as there are sharp edges on both ends. Once I got it set up properly, it loaded like a champ! I love the branding and the fact that all parts are made in the USA. Good job Skunkwirkz!

I know ,, while developing the loader i used to keep it on my coffee table and i found myself picking it up loading and unloading my mags just to make sure it still worked! its almost addicting.
 
I went to a concert in pittsburgh last night and noticed a fed ex package on my front porch. i was excited, but 2 am is a little late for my 40 yr old butt. then seeing this post reminded me i had a package...so i opened it up and have been playing with it for the last hour...i'm gonna sell the gun as i just wanna play with the loader...lol...

Jyezahn pretty much hit the nail on the head with his review, and included my only bad point, which is the finish on the aluminum tube...but that is a very easy fix for final production.

it helped watching the video again before hand...since i new it worked with Smith stock mags, i first tried it with the Plinker T
actical 35 mag and it worked almost flawlessly...it is a little tight fitting on and therefore the last 5 rounds needed to be loaded by hand. i think there is 2 reasons for this the first reason for this is the magazine mount is tight enough that i compresses the sides of the loader, not allowing the rounds to drop into the magazine. the other issue issue is how plinker tactical built their load assist tool. it does not have the buttons on the side like the smith mags. it has a tool that pushes the follower down from the rear( this tool actually works with the smith mags too). once it gets down low enough, the tool inches against the mag mount and cannot be lowered any more. these issues would/will not stop me from using this with the plinker tactical mag though as it is still slick as all get up using it to load 30 out of 35 rounds.
the preloader also holds all but 9 of the 35 cartridges.

it did take a few tries to get it right with the plinker. i think it was more me trying to be slick and load all non stop while pushing the plinker loading tool down.

i then grabbed a smith mag and it worked flawlessly, just like the video. i don't think it could be made any easier...

I do like that fancy yellow packing too...i am trying to think of another use for it...lol...thanks for that...

I left my camera at my mothers house, once i get it back, i'll take some pics and video showing the differences with the plinker tactical and smith mags.

SKUNKWERKZ, THANK YOU!!!

skunkwerkz, if you wanna send me you email addy, i'll make sure you get more in depth pics and video.

excuse me while i go load and unload magazines all day...

Yup, mine was waiting for me when I got home from range duty today. I haven't had a chance to play with it, but will do so shortly. :)

Love the shirt(s)!
 
I've received mine too and have been having fun loading and unloading. This thing is as addictive as the 15-22 :).

I am still working out the best method (your video will probably help) but when you get it right it's smooth. It seems to work best going 'slow', too fast and you get rounds dropped or jammed.

So far it works equally (well or not) with S&W and ProMag magazines. I let a friend borrow my BD drum this weekend but I should get it back next week and will try it out then.

I would agree with everything Jyezahn said in his review.

Thanks Chris/Skunk!
