ABSTRACT:
A device (110) for loading ammunition into a magazine (14) of a firearm is disclosed including a slide (150) movable relative to a planar portion (138) of a device body (132). The slide (150) includes a pin (128) removably insertable into a retention hole (164) formed in the slide (24) of the magazine (14). The magazine (14) is held relative to the device body (132) by the base (22) of the magazine (14) abutting with a seat (176) secured to a shelf portion (140) formed as part of the device body (132). The seat (176) includes a vertical surface (178) for spacing the base (22) of the magazine (14) away from the planar portion (138) and an inclined surface (180) for pushing the forward end of the base (22) of the magazine (14) upward. The device body (132) further includes a flange portion (142) which may be pinched by the user's hand with an outwardly extending leg (155) of the slide (150) to move the slide (150) relative to the device body (132). In the preferred form, the pin (128) extends from the spindle (156) and includes a cog for releasably engaging the intersection of first and second, coaxial portions (166, 168) forming the retention hole (164) .
