[ARCHIVED THREAD] - Korean 50 rd 9mm Glock drum

Posted: 1/31/2018 11:39:18 PM EDT

Just getting into a PCC which uses Glock mags. While I'll be able to use my G19 mags also, does anyone have any "hands-on" experience with this Korean 50 rd. 9mm drum?

Thanks!

Mine didn't feed and distributor wouldn't exchange it for a new one.
The hell with them.

I just go with the ETS 30 rounders when Botach has them on sale. Only like $12 a piece when they have them during the sale.

Thanks for the replies.

When I get the PCC (FM-9) up and running I'll have my G19 (factory & Magpul) mags as well as a few 33 rd Glock mags for it.

Was curious about if these aftermarket drums were worth trying out.

I have one. I may try it out tomorrow in my AR9 when I try out the Echo trigger I just installed.

it works most of the time. especially with glocks. Not as well in ar 9s...
Its great to shoot out of a handgun when simulating Contact for PSD drills as it keeps going and going and going. Never tried for serious work nor would i trust it for serious work. The built in loader makes it a pleasure to reload and it holds a full box of 9mm so its easy cheesy for even new people.

I bought two of the extended Korean mags. for my Glock. They worked fine, for a couple months. Then the springs failed (too weak to push the rounds up after the first 4 or 5 were fired).

I bought four of the standard sized mags. for the M31/M22. They never worked. I bought Glock springs and followers (which then made them more expensive than new Glock magazines) and they still didn't work. Just wouldn't feed consistently.

The drums tend to not work after a few full dumps. I think it’s a spring issue too. The regular mags seem ok for the most part. I had an AR 100 round and that one seemed to be ok for a while. But then started having feeding issues.
