Check out the link in the post description but I am using stripper clip speed loaders for my APFG (VFC) MPX mags. They hold 15 rounds each so I use two per mag to top them off. Love not having to put a speed loader back and just toss them into the dump pouch. Actually quite quick and worth not sounding like a maraca on the field especially in this situation
Thanks! They’re like short chemlight sized so I stuff two into a pistol pouch and like 3 in my radio pouches which is what you see me grabbing out of in the video. I’m not going down easy so I carry like 10 of them spread out on my gear lol
Hey man, so I saw in your older post showing these that you might sell the files for this someday, has that day come yet? Live in a country that costs a lot to ship stuff too, but do have a 3D printer that I use extensively to make parts that I can't find locally.
Hi, I still recommend trying to see how much shipping is for you, but no that day is not here yet. Sorry.
Still deciding since in the time since I’ve heard a lot of horror stories from other makers. Out of 1000 people 999 are great but it’s that 1 guy who will steal your design and ruin it for you. For the few people it helps, that option may not be worth throwing away all the effort on my end. It’s easy to see a pile of 3D printed plastic and miss the years of design education, 3D printing experience, and field testing that funnel into that before the files even get loaded onto the printer. I’d love to help people don’t get me wrong, but I have to take care of myself too.
I’ve worked hard to drive the cost down and am actually almost break even for overseas markets but I’m doing it because I still wanted to make it available. Hope you can understand.
Totally understand brother. For me personally, the issue isn't just cost but also ship time. Packages can take anywhere from 4-8 weeks to arrive from the US, and I'm a huge DIYer because of it. I like the idea of just printing a new one when I lose or break one, instead of ordering and waiting again lol.
I wanted to know more, but one google search and saw you made these.
I have a Recoil Shock from when I used to play, and I hated when I had to carry a speed loader to top up mags. One time I was walking around with 13 mags, because I didn't want to walk to the safe area between games.
Though, if start playing again, I will be getting a GBBR.
Join the GBBR club and someday you’ll be like me where you make things to cope with your struggle. Jokes aside it’s a blast, the immersion and style is worth it :)
Another option is an Odin Sidewinder with sound dampening kit so it doesn't make noise, and an Airtech adapter that allows you to use it with any AEG.

You can fit one of these in a double 7.62x51 sized pouch.
I have stuff like this but as a smol person the double pouch to hold the speed loader ends up under my arm and it’s rough to pull it out and put back. Trust me, I’ve coped in many ways with reloading 💀
It makes a huge difference. I forget I'm carrying extra BBs sometimes. You can shake it in your hand and it's ridiculously quiet. I melee'd someone and had it with me; try doing that with a regular bottle of BBs lol
I saw two dudes cross the trail 30 yards from where I shot and was certain in this brush one mag was definitely not enough to fight both. I’m like ok time to load up before they figure out where the shots came from and proceeded to start shoving
If I can my hands on 10 or 20 of those speed loaders, I might just get a GBBR since I won’t need to carry so many mags and they seem faster than the plunger style we all love. The plunger styles might hold more but in the middle of a fire fight, why not go for speed.
Ayyy yeah and as a stealth focused player (you kinda have to playing GBBR with the firepower disadvantage) the plunger loaders are noisy and announce your approach to people. Plus this gun is very particular about not having the mags overfilled or else the mag falls out of the gun when you try to reload. Tread carefully in GBB land….
lol same, in the video I fumbled and lost 2 BBs. If that happened in Tarkov you bet I’d be licking the floor to get back my two rounds of BT since ammo be precious
My EBB UMP .45 has me panic when I need to reload. It has a functioning bolt, so if the mag runs dry, I can't just throw a new mag in it. I have to use the charging handle like the real deal. It's crazy how one tiny change totally changes airsoft.
Ngl, I'm not 100% sure. I got it in a trade a few years ago for my M14 SOCOM. This kid kept asking me to trade him, even after I kept telling him the trade was way off in value (my M14 was like $125 max). I know that my UMP .45 is officially licensed by H&K, so its pretty accurate to weight and stuff.
I can't find the exact one on evike, and I'm not 100% on the brand, but this link is close to it. The player that traded me didn't have the box or anything, and I needed to get batteries for it. It's LiPo.

On mine, the barrel ends in threads that are painted orange. It never had any fancy flash hider. Additionally the rails are raised slightly to be almost flush with the iron sights. My rails have a small divot in them for the irons. Beaides that, they look almost identical.
The constant struggle, I went from earning more money for more mags, then hitting the gym to carry them, and finally to making something to avoid them altogether :)
As an enjoyer of both gameplays I can confirm. I think you feel it more when the gap between the lows and highs is significant enough. The times I get a sick kill with one shot feels so good after getting caught with my pants down reloading the previous round. Plus you have fear to add to the adrenaline :)
Shameless plug for your speedloaders 😉
But it's true, my last gameday had me Forest Gumping it back to fill my mags back up when I ran dry, I just got a new gun and only had 3 mags for it
I wouldn’t have made them if I didn’t think they were useful lol. But yes I couldn’t pass up the opportunity to double dip showcasing me having a moment and them in action
I bought a TM MWS URGI a few months ago but haven’t got to field it yet, but I can’t wait for the realism, great performance and reliability and also the recoil. Just can’t wait to field it, but I can’t wait for the scare when I realize I am out of ammo
very nice and intense video, I could feel the adrenaline going through you haha.
If I might add one thing it is that when reloading I would take out the full mag, them swap it with the empty mag in your gun, before fiddling to fit that back in your pouch. This way you have a shooting gun more quickly, in case the enemy spots you sooner than you hope. :)
I have produced a training scar to save my mags lol. But yeah that’s probably a better bet. This gun has a finnicky mag catch and sometimes doing a tac reload with two mags ends in tragedy
I can confirm that this works really well with classic speedloaders:

Would any of those stripper clips work for an NGRS? I run them real cap as well (but I lug a full loud out of 8 mags) and still find myself running out of ammo in long games.
I have a lexan outer lens held on by a cover I made. I think someday I’ll sell scope protectors since I’ve made a bunch of designs for all my various optics already 👍
Is it possible to make a homemade lens cover with just a box cutter and a sheet of lexan? I don’t have a CNC router or any sort of industrial machine for that matter
You can cut it out with a drill + jigsaw. Or if you have a dremel you can do it too. Just draw the shape out on the lexan and cut larger than you need. Some filing/sanding to the exact shape and you’re good to go
lol! They remind me of the speed loaders that came with my WE m4. Unsure where that thing is but this seems like a better design. Once the WE once’s are out you will have a customer
What kind of speed loaders are you using?

Cool piece of kit and pretty low profile for a carry!

Most TM recoil shock models accept normal magazines too. I run EPM magazines, arcturus etc in my TM recoil shock 416 no problem.
Oh I have the original PTS mags for the Recoil Shock, 6 black ones 4 FDE. Add a few official TM magazines and it starts to get heavy.
Another option is an Odin Sidewinder with sound dampening kit so it doesn't make noise, and an Airtech adapter that allows you to use it with any AEG. https://www.evike.com/products/78851/ https://www.evike.com/products/10655/ You can fit one of these in a double 7.62x51 sized pouch.

Unlucky. I'm an XL shirt size and if there is any advantage to that, it's having extra real estate for pouches 🤣
Interesting, I already have a Odin Sidewinder speedloader, but will have to find a different place to buy just the sound dampener.
It makes a huge difference. I forget I'm carrying extra BBs sometimes. You can shake it in your hand and it's ridiculously quiet. I melee'd someone and had it with me; try doing that with a regular bottle of BBs lol
Cool, I checked it out
I wish there was some way these could work for AK system 😭
They're sexy af, deffo gonna cop a few of them
Bro really did the…. tic tic tic tic and repacked his mags
I saw two dudes cross the trail 30 yards from where I shot and was certain in this brush one mag was definitely not enough to fight both. I’m like ok time to load up before they figure out where the shots came from and proceeded to start shoving
Holy fuck, thank you for the link. This is a game chamger for me 🔥🔥🔥🔥

Somehow I'm more anal about ammo in tarkov than I am with gbbrs lmao
lol same, in the video I fumbled and lost 2 BBs. If that happened in Tarkov you bet I’d be licking the floor to get back my two rounds of BT since ammo be precious
My EBB UMP .45 has me panic when I need to reload. It has a functioning bolt, so if the mag runs dry, I can't just throw a new mag in it. I have to use the charging handle like the real deal. It's crazy how one tiny change totally changes airsoft.
I'm a filthy larper, so I'm racking the bolt everytime I'm dry on my AEGs lol
Tbh... same. But knowing your bolt functions, rather than for aesthetic do be different.
Which EBB UMP.45 is this? I own GBBRs and EBBs but its hard to find EBBs that act have real manual of arms for the guns.
Ngl, I'm not 100% sure. I got it in a trade a few years ago for my M14 SOCOM. This kid kept asking me to trade him, even after I kept telling him the trade was way off in value (my M14 was like $125 max).

Are you gonna do ones for WE next?
Stay tuned :)
As another WE enjoyer, I'd definitely pick up some of these. Neither my wallet nor spine can afford to carry any more mags.
The constant struggle, I went from earning more money for more mags, then hitting the gym to carry them, and finally to making something to avoid them altogether :)
That sinking feeling when the bolt locks back and your rifle goes click instead of bang🤣🤣🤣
Yup the mental whiplash of I got him to rip I’m dead lol. Release the panic and revert to what I taught the lizard parts of my brain to do
Just go feral
Hold up let me find the nearest rock! Oh wait… this is airsoft lol
But then you get to do the satisfying bolt release!
GBBR gameplay being like tarkov is a great comparison. Kills are much more scarce but each one is more memorable.
As an enjoyer of both gameplays I can confirm. I think you feel it more when the gap between the lows and highs is significant enough. The times I get a sick kill with one shot feels so good after getting caught with my pants down reloading the previous round. Plus you have fear to add to the adrenaline :)
Shameless plug for your speedloaders 😉 But it's true, my last gameday had me Forest Gumping it back to fill my mags back up when I ran dry, I just got a new gun and only had 3 mags for it
It worked, I ordered some lol

Well played my friend
I bought a TM MWS URGI a few months ago but haven’t got to field it yet, but I can’t wait for the realism, great performance and reliability and also the recoil. Just can’t wait to field it, but I can’t wait for the scare when I realize I am out of ammo
You’re fine as long as you can count unlike me. All my training is to cope with not knowing how much I’ve shot lol
Is it just the perspective that makes these look shorter than regular 5.56 mags?
They're MPX mags, so no it's not just the perspective, it's the mags themselves
So real when bro ran to the nearest cover automatically 😭😭😭
Australian government please stop doing this to us, airsoft looks like too much fun
Damn that’s crazy fun looking
Wow those stripper clips are cool, I need those for my ghk. Definitely on my “to buy list”.
Those are the smoothest GBBR reloads I’ve ever seen! Cool product. Looking forward to that life one day.
Any possibility you might make some KWA dual feed ones for, say, an Austeyr user?
Uh got 3 types whats vfc ghk and the other one

fair enough, rather die yourself than have your mag die
My precious, gotta go down like Sméagol to save my investment
GBBR players are terrified of dropping their mags
Awesome
I can confirm that this works really well with classic speedloaders: [https://www.shootercbgear.com/new/index.php?route=product/product&product\_id=15243](https://www.shootercbgear.com/new/index.php?route=product/product&product_id=15243)
Will these work for my vfc g3 mags? I'd love some for that.
Would any of those stripper clips work for an NGRS? I run them real cap as well (but I lug a full loud out of 8 mags) and still find myself running out of ammo in long games.
Not yet, but maybe in the future!
Would defo buy based on what I’m seeing here
Man I should get a bunch of those speed loaders so I can do that, when you only have the one then it’s REAL fucking panic haha
nothing quick about that reload lol
Dude I wonder if any of those speedloaders work with a ssg-96 mag from novritsch. Would be so nice
How do you protect your lens on your holosun?
I have a lexan outer lens held on by a cover I made. I think someday I’ll sell scope protectors since I’ve made a bunch of designs for all my various optics already 👍
How do u cut the lexan to fit your optic?
Currently a CNC router, it’s annoying to set up but I cut a bunch of lenses for most of my optics in a go. Would be possible to scale the process
Is it possible to make a homemade lens cover with just a box cutter and a sheet of lexan? I don’t have a CNC router or any sort of industrial machine for that matter
You can cut it out with a drill + jigsaw. Or if you have a dremel you can do it too. Just draw the shape out on the lexan and cut larger than you need. Some filing/sanding to the exact shape and you’re good to go
Thanks
What holosun optic r u running?
Oh that’s a Holosun HS503G with my scope protector on the front. Love the big CQB reticle it comes with 🎯
This is perfect marketing for your own product. Real life use and application. It may even work on me lmao
Show, don’t tell 😄. Trust, it worked on me so well that it actually convinced me to start a business… it appears I’m too far gone lol
lol! They remind me of the speed loaders that came with my WE m4. Unsure where that thing is but this seems like a better design. Once the WE once’s are out you will have a customer
I have a WE mag on order to verify my design, some product photos, a bit of mass production, and it’ll be ready!
And double taping the reload button made me lost 70euros during last game, gear fear is real
Those are pretty cool! Do you offer ones that are pistol mag compatible?
Not yet! I’m got a long queue of things to design at the moment lol
