Jamming Speedloader

Postby Kenneth » Fri Feb 25, 2011 6:10 pm

i have a really old speed loader that i got from walmart a few months ago and it is terrible at loading bb's fast. Everytime i push the button down it jams and i have to take 10 seconds to unjam it and do it again. Does this happen with all speed loaders or is it just because i got mine at walmart

Take it apart to try and fix it or consider it a loss and buy anew one.

I think i know what you mean, I just shake it and keep going. The new kwa speed loaderhttp://www.airsoftpost.com/product_info.php?products_id=33695 is the best loader out there. It's never jammed on me and makes loading a breeze

Walmart is your downfall in this situation, but with ones I use, I just shake it or (in bad cases) hit it on my leg and it works fine

It is a good product but you can't load it as fast as you can pump it and if you pump to fast it will jam. Also the nozzle is to big so it'll let bbs just fall out of the loader and also be pushed back in by the mags spring. To load some mags you have to tilt the loader so the bb stopper on the mag is stopping the bbs so they won't just go back into the loader so your not loading the same four bbs again and again.

That will only happen if the o-ring popped out of the nozzle, which is rare. Check your loader and see if there is an o-ring in the bottom of the nozzle, if not then you need another o-ring to pop in there.
