    Default Sprinfield XD-S, Loading the Magaiznes

    I hate to admit this but I have caught the bug, just bought my first handgun about 2 months ago, and just last week I purchased another handgun.

    Trouble is that the magazines for the Springfield XD-S are super tight and a bear to load. At first i was only able to load around 5 rounds out of 9. Now i can get 7 rounds in.....(left the magazine loaded with the 5 rounds for a few days).

    Tried to find a mag or speed loader for the XD-S but Springfield doesn't make a mag loader for the XD-S.......... any suggestions.

    By the way my first gun (Glock 17) came with a mag loader, thank god.

    Thanks
    Dan

    You do NOT have to "hate to admit this" to anyone, especially here. Load the mag and leave it sit for at least 48 hours. Use the UpLULA. You will eventually learn how to load the mags and how the bullets are positioned.

    George,
    So many guns, so little money.

    The factory extended mag only holds 7.

    What he said. The first time I saw some video reviews on youtube of how fast you can load a mag... it was hypnotic.
