Figured you all might find this interesting. AN AR with a suomi drum mag.  This looks sweeter than the sten mag conversion that I've seen.  Also it looks like it would be more affordable that the colt 9mm setup.  I am not sure of specifics but emailing Vic about this might get more details.  Oh and here is a link to the site (unfortunately it is still under construction)  http://www.tommy15.com/

I do believe he is incorrect when he claims that the Suomi is the only 72rnd drum for the 9mm setup.

Pretty sure Colt made some, but they're not to common.

Unless the guy who has two of them for sale is lying to me...

Umm.... he's lying to you unless they are never-before-seen toolroom prototypes of some sort. Colt never made any production drums for the M16/9 (i.e., 635 SMG).

C&S Metallwerkes came up with the concept of welding Suomis to feed towers made from factory mags. Other producers included MMAG, who made the two I use with my 635:
