 I just got in Magpul's new PCC drum magazine and although it fits into the CMMG Banshee, it doesn't fit in the APC9-G with the Glock mag lower. The lip of the front of the magwell hits into the loading lever in its collapsed position and looks like it blocks the mag from clicking in by only a millimeter or 2. This is really disappointing. They have the full length mag version of the drum, but that would stick out a lot for this gun and look silly. Magpul missed the mark here unfortunately. Edit: even after taking off the front cap and rotating so the loading lever was on the bottom, the magwell on the apc9 hits a different part of the mag that stops it from going all the way in. Sad panda. |

Thanks, OP.
Wonder if the other one works? |

You need to reread the directions. They show a solution for that problem!

The instructions show how to reposition the lever opposite from where it is. I suggest contacting Magpul for a download of the manual.

Quote HistoryQuoted: I just read the manual cover to cover and there's nothing in there that would help here. That's interesting. Should show how to disassemble for cleaning and also show how to reposition the front cover as well to fix that problem too. |

Just read my manual for mp5 magpul drum and on the last page it shows u can rotate the lever to the 3 o'clock or 9 o'clock. U pop up the 4 retaining clips and rotate the cover.

Quote HistoryQuoted: Thanks for the tip, unfortunately that didn't solve it. After scratching the shit out of the clips and snapping off a small chunk of plastic from them, I finally got them off and rotated the front cap 180 degrees so it was on the bottom. Sadly now the bulged out plastic on the mag at the base of the shaft hits the mag well instead of that front loading lever. Still won't click in. The manual then says to call them at that point for a possible solution. |

A request for OP (or anyone else with the Magpul PCC drum): please measure the front of the tower from bottom of mag release notch to top of drum.
I would like to get a couple of these for my Gatling gun, but I'm concerned that I'll have the same problem with a too-short tower. Thanks! |

I just got 2 in today. And they will not fit my APC9 and APC9K. What a joke, I assumed Magpul knew how to measure.
Below is a message I got from Magpul today to my question we these do not fit the B&T PCC. Good afternoon! The MAG1137 is not compatible with the B&T guns due to their mag well profile. The MAG1033 with the longer tower will seat. Troy Woolhether? Tech Support Rep - Firearms Accessories? |

There’s enough B&t Glock guns out there for them to have mentioned that they don’t function in B&t Glock lowered guns when they released them. I would hope they at least offered to exchange them for the Glock pistol size that functions with them.
