very small speedloaders?
 
im looking for a speedloader that is about 2.5" tall, any one have any ideas?

I think that would barely have enough room to hold the feeding mechanism, nevermind have storage for BB's. Why the size restriction?

would be a nice size to fit in a grenade pouch, or to speed load a revolver!

im working on a project, im hoping to hide it in a 5 round stripper clip. it also doesnt need to hold more that 5 or 10 bbs

I have seen a small one like that usually comes with a WE rifle when you buy one. IIRC, it can only hold about 15 bbs in a tube and you use a piece of plastic to shove it in similar to the old style speedloaders.

aren't you talking about the one that comes with KJW M4 gbbr's ? never saw them with WE's...anyway, those are a tube, not a really effective way imo

stronger detent to prevent bb's from rolling out and do some modification to the "plunger" and tube to keep them together but also slide into/on each other to remain compact. If we are just talking 10-15 rounds something like that could work, wish I was decent at paint or something so I could illustrate my ideas.-meh its good enough....

The short loading tube came with my WE PDW.

Any tube of the right size for a bb with a plunger will do the job. Buy a plastic or copper tube in a hobby store and buy a rod that fits inside at the same time. Cut the plunger (rod) slightly longer then the tube. Pull back plunger, insert bb, push bb into mag using plunger. You can make several tube and tie them together. If size is really important, make only one plunger and several tubes. Use a rubber band to cap the tubes.

I'm wondering what a lot of people are wondering: What's your purpose for this? Why so few rounds?

im planning on making a lee enfield. they are loaded by a 5 round stirpper clip, and not by carrying loaded magazines. so all the equipment that goes with them is designed to hold stripper clips.

this leaves me 2 options, use real stripper clips and make it shell ejecting which is complicated due to lost shells, or i make a speedloader that fits in a stripper clip and carry several of them. this is easier in that i dont lose parts or have to deal with making it all work with shells.
