Speed loaders for SIG and Ruger

thingiverse

These speed loaders are specifically designed for certain SIG and Ruger handguns. The model, manufacturer, and caliber are all included in the file name. While they may resemble jsteuben's design, this version has been tweaked with improved tolerances and beefed-up parts. However, note that these loaders work only with specific magazines and may not be compatible with others from different manufacturers. For your safety, always handle firearms responsibly. These speed loaders save wear and tear on your fingers while loading magazines. To use them, place the magazine inside the loader and rest it on a stable surface if possible. Push down to clear a path for the bullet, then insert the bullet halfway before pulling up the loader and pushing the bullet fully into the magazine. Although they may not be faster than manual loading, these speed loaders offer ease and convenience. Commercial options are available online but may have some advantages over this design. If your gun isn't listed, choose a speed loader file with the same caliber, if possible, or a smaller one. Flip the part on the build plate and print only the bottom quarter of the speed loader. Check if your magazine fits through the small piece. If it does, proceed to print the full speed loader. If not, scale up the design as needed. There's a 95% chance it will work for you. Adhesion to the build plate is crucial during printing. Printing specifications are provided in the original document. Modifications may be required after printing.
