Crosman DPMS SBR: How to Load the Magazine Using the Speed Loader

[@vincef7487]

The speed loader that came with my DPMS SBR had a bb already stuck in the outlet hole. I pounded it back into the hopper with a #4 hex wrench and proceeded to ream the hole with the wrench. BINGO! The speed loader started working as designed. There may be a slight manufacturing defect that could be easily addressed.

[@phwill1]

Same exact issue with mine when I got it today, thanks for the tip Vince.

[@lucaswong4247]

Not gonna lie... This is more solid advice for me over the video

[@gutikush4394]

phwill1 where can I order a new one ?

[@vincef7487]

Guti kush You can get a new speed loader from Amazon ...for just $175.00. AND THEY THROW IN A FREE DPMS SBR . 😆 -> I saw a guy make a “speed loader” out of a plastic straw. Looks like it worked OK. Try it out.

[@PBpls]

in my case it didn't work, maybe I do something wrong, but I even used small metal file to ream the hole:/ BBs are blocking all the time.

[@craigblanton777]

I am looking all over the web to find this exact speed loader. Does anyone have a a link to order?

Thanks. Had problems with all brands except the Hornady Black Diamond. They work perfect and load easy. No jams.

Speed loader wanted to hang at first. A couple shots of wd40 then the first one was hard to eject into my hand. After that just a shake or two and the loader worked flawlessly using Copperhead bb's. Went through 150 rounds easy peasy.

[@thomasaltruda]

The mag follower does lock back.. you slide the follower down, then to the right and it goes into a little grove. Edit: on your close up, it doesn’t look like you have that slot..

[@ms0824]

Yes. It's just a pain to do without a tool. I use either a small screwdriver or an allen.

[@illusion5347]

I have 3 bbs stuck in the spring in the mag. I don’t know what to do. I can’t take them out :( ...can someone help me out please

[@harris66james]

Wow! I literally had that happen to me last night. I spent an hour trying to get those BBs out, only to destroy the spring and buy a new magazine for $49 15 mins ago. I'm not sure how they lodge under the spring, but it was three that would not dislodge. The magazine doesn't come apart so I'm not sure how you can remove them.

[@dylanw6804]

You can remove the tip that goes into mag, push lever and it’ll clear it out.

[@JS-ed2hg]

I truly agree with Martin with the use of a good quality silicone oil. I seen a video where someone used WD-40 which I would not recommend as yes it is a lubricant but also has solvent properties that will degrade seals faster. They make some pretty good high grade aerosol cans of silicone oil for airsoft guns I forget what brand. I just purchased my R1 but have been dealing with several air guns and currently own a WE-TECH m4 CQB V3 and silicone is the way to go. I don't know if older mags regarding the crosman DPMS did not have the notch to lock the spring-loaded follower in place but the one I have does. Without even looking at reviews I purchased Hornady black diamond BB's as that's all I would ever purchase, but I see in reviews they work flawlessly as other BB's have jams and whatnot. I had no issues at all using the speed loader with these BB's no need to even lubricate.

[@DirtyDovi]

Hold the mag w/ the follower track facing up.. Use a thumbnail to pull the silver follower lever downward.. *You'll see the hoke where the bb's have to go.. **Keep pulling the follower lever down Past That. *There's actually an obvious rectangular cutout at the very bottom / right side.. Once the follower is pulled down to that cutout, it can then be slid over to the right - where it will lock into place and stay until you knock it back to the left and out of the groove Just got mine about an hour ago, and figured it out. Works like a charm - as did the speedloader. 🤘🙂

[@sliknick18]

This gun is great, tons of fun and extremely good value for the money. Speed Loader is a little finicky though. Good tip on the BBS! Thanks

[@Ghxstbxy_z]

Add a drop of pellgun oil to the speed loader full of bbs and shake it. They should just glide out smoothly after

[@gutikush4394]

Where can I order a new speed loader

[@cmderrx]

Quite helpful! The "locking" slide on the magazine for loading per the instructions was driving me nuts, it just doesn't do it and I thought I was just being stupid. Speed loader and tips are great!

[@shashahineha-weh9467]

How about the Copperhead 6000 BBS? Would they jam in the speedloader? Thanks!

[@cigarnationwarriors]

Very helpful. I bought the Crosman bbs with my Crosman AK1 rifle. Hope these work.

[@am75023]

Put a few drops of all-purpose silicone in the bb loader's reservoir partially filled. Then work that through. Loads way smoother..

[@airgundepot]

That's a great tip! Thanks, we'll add that into the guide.

[@shashahineha-weh9467]

I'm getting the Hornady Black Diamond bbs. Getting rid of these Copperhead ones. They flat jam up the works.

[@Joooooooooooosh]

There should be a little notch at the bottom of the follower track. You slide the thingy off to the side and it stays in place.

[@mr.octopus6972]

Almost everybody are whining and complaining about this loader but in fact it's working great if you're not too dumb to understand the law of gravity. - Have the gun charger facing down to let the BBs fall in line instead of trying to push em up. - 4 or 5 little pushes works better than 2 long pushes, no shaking needed. - When you want to lock the loader handle without making a mess, it wont spill any BBs on the floor if it is facing upward. Be gentle and understand your physics... Simple 😉

[@eddieb9558]

If you pull it all the way back there is a locker on the side of it to slide it into and it will stay open so you can load your bbs

[@ms0824]

It's just a pain to do without a tool though. I use a small screwdriver or an Allen.

[@ilijabosnjak76]

What's wrong with Daisy BBs? They go excellent trough my AK1,no problems ...

[@jeffreymanord987]

If the daisy and marksman bbs have a tendency to get stuck in the speed loader, is it liable to jam the barrel too?

[@pointnozzleaway]

I shoot a little silicone spray in with a half loaded loader. then shake it all around .... works great for me !

[@henryduboisey9256]

If you really wanted to truly have the BEST fully auto BB rifle.. 2 things: 1. Make an upgrade that allows for a drum or magazine that is capable of emptying 300-500+ BB in one single clip / or drum 2. Make an upgrade that allows for a paint ball size CO2 tank of around 20oz. With these two things, this BB gun would be the hell mary of all BB air rifles on the market. The biggest benefit is the ability to shoot fully auto for significantly longer periods of time due to having a much larger magazine that holds way more than 25 BB's at a time, and not having to worry with changing out the mini CO2 cartridges after 100-125 shots. Another benefit, you will sell more BB's

[@dannyj1865]

My speed loader works great, I love it! If you hold it in the palm of your left hand ( or right) you can hold the finger tab with your thumb instead of your finger. Either way is fine! You will want to buy extra mags too........I Love the Dpms so much ( I own the Black one) that I'm going to buy the dark earth one too!......Enjoy! Thank you for posting this video, it really helped!

[@danarcotta1283]

get the qr reservoir magazine...it holds 300 rounds, you can load it in seconds without removing it from the gun....awesome

[@alexkidd1906]

So what kind of BB do you recommend? I can't understand what you are saying when you mention the name of the last bb that you recommend.

[@danarcotta1283]

I just bought the gun and ordered a QR Reservoir magazine. The first thing that I am going to shoot is a crappy Chinese Ibanez acoustic guitar that I've had for years.Never really liked it, bought it because I had to do some acoustic stuff with a certain artist for a few months. I recently used the guitar and I realize that it's time for it to go. SHOOT 'EM UP!!!

This one will work more or less, but it doesn't have the same tip as the Crosman. www.airgundepot.com/umarex-universal-bb-speedloader.html For a true replacement you'd need to contact Crosman directly.

I did exactly that. So my problem is, it only spent the one CO2, which is the left side “FIRST.” Yes I heard both gas HISSS as it pricks the CO2 12 gm. My B.B. loader doesn’t work either. After shooting a few rounds like 3 magazines, the obvious LOW CO2 sign tells me I’m low in CO2. REALLY? So I unscrew the FIRST one first and very little HISSS I indicating I’m out of CO2. Then I proceeded to remove the next one. HISSSSSED VERY LOUD AND VERY FULL OF CO2. It obviously did not spent that CO2. Why???? Defective magazine????

If there have been a lot of complaints about the Speedloader, Crosman is negligent for not improving its design. I spent 1/2 hour on this and could not get it to work. I might try again when I don't have so much on my plate. But I never expected this much of a hassle, and if I had known how frustrating it would be, I probably would have purchased a different model altogether. I hope Crosman reads reviews from Travis; they could learn something...

I've been very disappointed with my rifle that I just received a few days ago. The spring BB follower gets stuck almost all the time near the last 1/2 inch of travel towards the bottom of magazine so I'm unable to have access to the loading port. I can't even press the plunger down with my thumb- it wont budge. The few times I was successful, the magazine fed poorly. Fire...BBs come out...then nothing but air...then a few more BBs come out- frustrating. To add insult to injury, the bolt rarely locks back like it should on the last shot, so I just end up wasting precious co2 gas. Just don't order through Amazon like I did. They don't take returns on co2 guns. Now I'm stuck with this turd. I contacted Crosman, but I'm not holding my breath. Too bad. I really wanted to like this.

BB loaders that only works with a specific brand of BB? What a load of crap! Time for someone to design an aftermarket magazine that is gravity fed from a hopper and has an compressed air adapter for this gun to be fun to shoot. I am deeply disappointed with its performance....not the gun, but the magazine component. What’s the point of full auto when you have to reload one BB at a time. What a joke.

[@dderossett]

no it's user error.......I have no problem whatsoever with it........all I use is Daisy bb's......

I think it's beyond poor work on crosmans part that this POS feeds only select BB's.. also, if someone hasn't seen this video (like me) and puts umarex bb's in it jams the feeder permanently 5 minutes after getting it was garbage. Mine has bb's stuck in that I can't get out, so the thing went into the garbage where it belongs. Poor, exceptionally poor, SHAMEFULLY poor work on Crosmans part especially since there is no mention of this or the speed loader at ALL in the paltry documentation. The gun is a ton of fun, but the speed loader can be chucked into the nearest wood chipper.
