Glock gives you the magazine load assist for the little girls to use. ;) Seriously though, the last two rounds can be tough in a Glock.

Speed loaders are must for my girlie hands

Heh heh..."little girls"..."girlie hands"...virtually every gal I`ve shot/driven with was so much better than most guys it wasn`t even close. And they loaded their own (high-cap) mags no problem. Hey, you two *knew* I wouldn`t let that [stuff] pass without a snarky comment, right?!? :D

But seriously, get a Mag Loader if you`re gonna be serious about your training. When going through a gazillion rounds/day most *everybody* uses `em.

Tc99m- "Speed loader" makes me think "revolver"...is that just me?

I shoot mostly with my family and we have always called them speed loaders. We shoot anything and everything that comes to the family property.:) Mag Loader is probably more accurate. But, we utilize speed loaders, mag loaders and strip loaders. Tomato or is it a tomato.
 
Tc99m- OK, just wondered if you were rocking a wheel gun these days. I`m not all that picky about such stuff...I`ll say "grips" instead of "stocks" and so on.

Ronkh- If you`re running a high-cap in any kind of decent training, you`ll need that. We always did OK with our single-stacks, but *everybody* who ran a high-cap was using a loader after the first 1K rounds or so, and if/when I really switch to a Plastic Fantastic you can bet I`ll use a good mag-loader.

No need to put the S Cape on. There was no offense intended. A little girl`s hands was absolutely the picture I wanted to paint with my words. Seriously, have you watched an 8 year old girl or any kid pressing the last two rounds in a Glock HiCap Mag? Knowing Ron has sausage fingers, I thought it was funny. Have you seen him text?

I`ve known many women who were fine marksmen with pistols and rifles, my daughter being one of them. That said, they struggle just like men with strong hands pushing those last couple of rounds in a Glock Mag, even with Glock`s Mag Loader.

I also know a woman who before ankle problems could shift`em and drive with any man. If I beat her in a race it was because my car was faster.

As far as speed loaders go, I`ve got them for semi`s, revolvers, AK`s, AR`s and especially for 10/22`s. They`re all Speed Loaders.

I always did better with speed strips.

Huh, never woulda thunk it! When I was dialed-in I could do speedloaders pretty fast, but the strips always took me forever. Good speedloaders weren`t exactly "magazine change"-fast by a long shot, but they didn`t take multiple manipulations like the strips always did. But then speedloaders were awfully bulky things to tote around too...

Does anyone know of a great detailer in Dallas, TX? I looked at the Detailer Locator and it doesn`t seem to be updated since 2014 for Texas.
Thanks.

Having one of those religious detailing experiences in this garage as I get ready to introduce the world to my latest masterpiece of shine.

I don`t share full pics until after the owner picks up. I want them to bask in their cars glory first.
 
just noticed AG website got a visual overhaul... when does ours get one?

I think we should have Autopian`s work scrolling on the ad section on the front page... we`re more grass roots (at least I feel).
