Description
Loading .22LR magazines by hand is tedious on your thumbs, and the last few rounds into a full magazine can feel impossible. The 22UpLULA fixes that problem with a purpose-built loader and unloader designed for wide-body .22LR pistol magazines. This isn't a universal mag loader cramped down to work with .22LR rounds. Instead, Maglula engineered this from the ground up with a narrower metal beak sized specifically for .22 caliber cartridges, while maintaining the proven body width of the full-size UpLULA platform.
Loading Your Magazines the Right Way
With the 22UpLULA, you'll load rounds in about one-third the time it takes to load by hand. The slim polymer construction allows you to load up to one round per second into both single-stack and double-stack magazines. You slip the magazine in, press the beak down, and the round feeds in cleanly every time. Feed lips stay protected throughout the process, which extends magazine life compared to manual thumb loading that can mark or wear the lips over time.
Built to Handle the Work
The loader is crafted from reinforced polymer that's tough enough for regular use without adding bulk. It weighs just 2.55 ounces, so it fits in a pocket, range bag, or gear locker. The gray and black finish gives it a clean look without any fragile parts to worry about. Since it's designed for .22LR specifically and not adapted from a different caliber tool, the fit and function are dialed in for your magazines.
More Than Just a Loader
Unloading magazines is where most loaders fall short, but the 22UpLULA unloads just as smoothly as it loads. When you need to clear a magazine for cleaning, storage, or transport, a few presses of the mechanism and all rounds pop out quickly and safely. No more trying to flick .22 rounds out one by one.

Frequently Asked Questions
What magazines will the 22UpLULA loader work with?
The 22UpLULA is designed for .22LR wide-body pistol magazines that are larger than 1/2 inch wide, including .22LR converted 1911 magazines, CZ Kadet conversions, and Sig Sauer P322 magazines. It will not work with Glock 44 or Kel-Tec P17 magazines, Tactical Solution aluminum magazines, or magazines under 1/2 inch wide. If you're unsure about your specific magazine, the Maglula website has a detailed compatibility list.
Can I use this loader with single-stack magazines?
Yes. The 22UpLULA works with both single-stack and double-stack magazines. For single-stack 1911-wide magazines, Maglula makes an optional 1911AI Aligner Insert that narrows the inner cavity and provides better stabilization during loading, which some users find helpful for tighter fits.
How much faster is the 22UpLULA compared to loading by hand?
The loader performs the job in approximately one-third the time of manual thumb loading. You can load up to one round per second once you get the motion down. Beyond speed, you'll notice your thumbs don't get sore or develop blisters from loading large quantities of ammunition, which is the real benefit during long range sessions.
Does this loader have an unloader function?
Yes, the 22UpLULA unloads magazines as easily as it loads them. This is useful for clearing magazines before storage, cleaning, or transport. Just align the magazine and press down to eject the rounds quickly, which beats trying to flick .22 cartridges out one at a time.
