[ARCHIVED THREAD] - CHINESE AK/47 7.62x39 DRUM MAG ?

Posted: 9/7/2016 1:18:20 PM EDT

I got these 2 drum mags with a rifle I just bought. I am planning on selling them but I want to give accurate info sense I don't know what I really have I would like any info you can give me. The only reason I think they are Chinese is that one of them has an old little gold oval sticker that says made in china. Other than that the only other thing I was told by the guy is that he never used them. So what do I have. thanks

If real Chinese, they are good ones. I've had two and they functioned flawlessly if loaded correctly. There is a trick to loading them correctly, but you can find this using internet search. My drums also had a factory number stamped above the key. It is a number 36 inside a triangle. I don't know if all Chinese drums are stamped. New chinese drums easliy go for $100+ these days..

No markings of any kind. That's why I am a little leery to post them. I don't know what I have, so I don't want to say there Chinese if there just run of the mill drums. I don't want to screw someone over and I don't want to give them away ether.

The key on your drums look Chinese
