Abstract
A device to facilitate the loading of cartridges into an automatic pistol magazine atop an internal cartridge follower plate which is urged upward by an internal magazine spring. The device comprises a thumb size indented block to which is attached a wire loop. When loading the magazine, the wire loop is hooked around a knob attached to the follower plate, which extends outward through a slot on the magazine wall, and is pulled down, lowering the follower plate, allowing the cartridges to be freely inserted. While loading, the magazine base is inserted into the indentation on the block and the block is held against the magazine base by the force of the spring until loading is completed.
