"Great! Loads m4 mags very quickly and holds a lot more in reserve
by Devan T. on 05/16/2020
"Oh... My... God.

I've loaded somewhere between 4k-5k rounds so far with this thing and it just takes zero effort. Its so smooth and easy that it feels like you could load 3 midcaps faster than you could wind up a full high. I'm in love with this thing and you will be too. This is the best quality of live improvement I've found since smart chargers.

"For those with midcap mags, this is a lifesaver. No more sore thumbs, no more wasted BBs. Mine even came with the sound dampener already installed (I'm not sure if this is standard, because they don't mention it in the description, but you can get the dampener separately for $15).

PROS
Works Great. I can load my midcaps in less than half the time.
No Overloading. The built in clutch automatically stops loading when the mag is full, so you don't need to worry about damaging your springs.
High Capacity. I can load 10-11 midcaps (140rd each) without reloading. Advertised as holds 1600 rounds, and I don't doubt it at all.
Not too Loud. You might expect BBs in a plastic container to rattle like crazy and give away your movements, but with the rubber dampener inserted, it's quieter than most hicaps. IMPORTANT: Mine came with the dampener, but I'm not sure that is standard. Either way, they sell the inserts for $15 separately, but I'd suggest waiting to see if yours comes with it already. No point in paying for inserts if you get one already.

CONS
Pricey. But you get what you pay for. Don't expect a quality airsoft experience without paying a little more.

"SOOOO much faster than loading any other way. Feels solid. Much more quiet than expected.

"I had previously bought an Elite Force EFSL14 speed loader, which was good enough that I didn't see much of a point in the Odin. However my curiosity got the better of me and I eventually caved in. Rather glad I did so. While the EF loader works well, loading mags on the Odin is a bit easier (winding vs shaking/pumping). And occasionally I'd over pump the EF when the mag was near full and the mag and some BBs would pop out, meanwhile the Odin seems to be true to its word with not winding past full.

But the real big advantage is the form factor - the EF is essentially another gun you have to fit into your bag (it's essentially a small pistol grip shotgun), and it's not something you can take onto the field. The Odin is essentially two M4 mags stacked on each other so it not only takes up little space in the bag, but you can fit it into an ammo pouch on your plate carrier. And I was surprised that it comes with an internal rubber dampening material, so it isn't even a nuisance when running around.

So for someone who already owns the EF loader I think it's worth buying. If you just have a traditional speed loader then it's worth putting down the $40. You can fill multiple mags in the time it takes to load one with a traditional loader, and gives you 1500+ BBs you can bring with you onto the field (even the M4 mag sized speed loaders only hold around 500).

The obvious knock would be compatibility - M4 mags only by default, and there are only a few custom adapters with few reviews. But I think if it is something you can use, it's absolutely worth buying.

"Let me tell you something about this device. I would rather leave my gun, gloves, and cup at home than leave my m12 sidewinder at home. I bought one of these from my local field 4-5 years ago when it just came out. It was $50 back then. I would still pay $50 for it. I cannot imagine spending forever loading my mags with a clear plastic speed loader. Never again. Buy one of these. Trust me, you won't regret it.
by John M. on 02/28/2020
"Works best with .28 and heavier bbs. .20 bbs loaded super clunky into all mags, felt like I was going to break it loading them.
by Trevor C. on 02/17/2020
"Such a time saver!!! I picked this up a few months ago and have fielded this multiple times. With a squad of magazines to fill, it's been a god send to have this device along. WAY better than your average speed loader.
by Paul H. on 02/13/2020
"This really is a great mag filler. The $40 price tag for blue scared me away (picked blue because it was the cheapest) and I'm glad I bought it. It'll save you a significant amount of time filling mags. My brother bought a cheap china knock off of this and broke the first time. So spend the extra $20 and buy this good quality one.
Get a color that will stand out too, you'll be happy when rummaging through your gear.

"single handedly the best airsoft purchase i have made. ever. just avoid the matrix adapters, there are better fitting ones out there. evike should look into carrying those...
by Craig Jr E. on 01/30/2020
"FANTASTIC product. ONLY problem is that it's super loud when partially full, though that just comes with the territory. I bought some 1/16th" adhesive-backed foam rubber to silence the inside, and that worked perfectly. OI used to sell a silicon "silencer" kit for the inside, but I can never find it in stock, so I think they may have discontinued it.

I run 3 midcaps on a belt for airsoft, so this is a much better option for me than 1-2 small speedloaders and a bottle of BBs in my pocket. Fits perfectly in a double M4 mag pouch.
by Kyle P. on 12/30/2019
"this is amazing. just got it today and seems to be working wonders, feeds perfectly and can load a single mid cap 120, in about 5 seconds. For me, it had this rubber on the side, so when you have it in your bag or whatever, it doesn’t make a lot of noise, it truly is drama free! lol.. GET THIS, EVERY HARDCORE M4 DUDE SHOULD HAVE ONE.
by Andrew R. on 12/30/2019
"This is a must have accessory for your airsoft kit. Loading my M4 magazines have become a satisfying step in gearing up to play. Gone are the days of the universal speed loaders that would only load 4-6 BBs at a time. Absolute garbage compared to this gem. Loading my 120 mid-caps takes mere seconds. If you're worried that the price is a little steep, just understand the value of the convenience this loader will provide is well worth it.
by Caleb d. on 12/15/2019
"Works like a charge and feeds mid caps in mere seconds.

Pros:
+ hold 1600 bb's
+ insulated interior to dampen bb rattle (really works)
+ very sturdy plastic that makes you know its a quality product

Cons:
- none

I will have to note that the plastic winder showed evidence of some self-grinding when I first used it. There was plastic dust left around the rims of it. But eventually that stopped after a few mags were loaded.
