Prototype Krag Speedloader

This is the first iteration of a speedloader for the Krag Jorgensen. It’s essentially a box with one open end and a spring loaded retaining plate. When squeezed, the retaining plate pivots out of the way, allowing cartridges into the magazine. I originally made this for the 30-40 US Krag, bending it slightly wider allows the 8x58r for the Danish Krag to fit. It took 3 takes for the rounds to exit smoothly. The speed loader is sensitive to the angle the rifle is held at as well as how the rounds fit into it. #shorts DISCLAIMER All subjects featured on this channel are shown for historical and informational purposes only.
