Pistol Mag Loaders

Hi Guys,
Been reading (learning and laughing) a lot for a while now but this is my first post.
Anyway, I am looking for a good quality magazine loader that will load Springfield XDS 9mm 7 and 9 round mags and Sig Sauer P238 (380 ACP) 6 and 7 round mags.
I have been looking at the HKS model 943 adjustable, which looks like it will work but may not be very durable.
I have also been looking at the Maglula stuff - the babyuplula and the uplula - which look more durable but I can't tell if one of these will do the trick for both models. Can't really tell if either will load the Sig actually.
Any help / suggestions are appreciated.
Thanks.

Best universal magazine loader i have found is free, rarely gets lost and takes up 0 extra room in your bag. Its your thumb.
+1.
I use a very sophisticated "trick" when I load stiff magazines:
a. Hold magazine in left hand with opening pointing toward the right.
b. Place to-be-loaded round on top of magazine.
c. Push down on round with right thumb.
d. Push down on right thumb with left thumb.
e. Slide round into place. . .repeat.
So far I've never found the magazine I couldn't load fairly easily using this two thumb technique.
Once in a while, I'll come across some so called 16 round magazine where its REALLY hard to load the last round.
So then I just rename the magazine a 15 rounder, and stop after 15.
See how easy that was?
THEN I tried the Upula on several types of mags.
Well if I only want to load 1 or 2 mags I will stick with my thumbs, but if I'm at the range and going through boxes of ammo, the Upula sure speeds up the process and my thumbs say thank you!
UPLULA, the best mag loader on the market! Loads single stack, double stack. Simple, easy to use. Watch the short video!
Have two of them +![:)]quote:Originally posted by CS8161

Another vote for the uplula. Picked mine up at the Baghdad PX a couple years ago. Best loader for pistol mags.
I also have one for my AK mags and one for my AR mags.
