Anybody got one?

It says it works with the AR-10. I'm not sure they know what an AR-10 is, but since the AR-10 "B" mag was based on the M14 mag maybe it does. In any case I'd like to be sure before I order one.

All I know about the Lula, is that I have never needed one.

I don't need one to load mags, the rounds pop right in. Where I could use one is unloading mags, which is a middlin PITA (the thing says it does both).

I'd order one and take a chance if that's all there was to it, but I've got two squirts that have AR-10s too. I don't want to p*** my cash away on three of them if they won't work on a 10B mag.

OOhhh.. I never considered the unloading part. I usually leave that to the rifle.

It would be easier to guesstimate if the bottom of the lula was visible. gen2 mags having a slightly different profile from the gen1/m1a version, otherwise I'd say yes.

I had the unloader and loader (they were separate tools) for my HK-91. You could punch rounds into the mag fast as you could pick 'em up. With the mag inserted in the unloader you could flip the paddle back and forth and the rounds would just fall out. They saved a lot of time and fingernails.

I think I'll order one and see if it works. Will report back either way.

will NOT work with original AR-10 mags (or modified m-14 mags). Might work with the new AR-10A models that can utilize DPMS, etc. mags.
