the ammo over so that its facing upwards, put the plunger over the rail and place the ETS Speedloader against your chest and simply rack the ammo into your magazine.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0As you\u2019ll see in the video,\u00a0<\/span>It truly was that easy and worked flawlessly. \u00a0<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">We ran multiple rounds through the ETS Speedloader and only had one incident of a round\u00a0naming, which we believe was on us and not the product. \u00a0<\/span>The obvious BIG advantage here is the speed and saving your fingers which we all know after a day on the range and loading a few hundred rounds, they can be a bit sore.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>But thanks to ETS and their
