2ndArmored Posted April 20, 2012 Report Share Posted April 20, 2012 When did the "spoon" type of magazine loader come out? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
woodsy Posted April 22, 2012 Report Share Posted April 22, 2012 The 'spoon' magazine loader, correctly known as the Mk 4, was introduced in the latter stages of WW2. The production may have continued after the war, depending on the number available. The guns had been in service for a couple of years before the Mk 1 loader appeared in 1943. The Mk 4 loader worked as well as the earlier types but was much more compact, and cheaper to make. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
