I shot my drum for the first time and like some things and disliked somethings.

First let me start with I have Norinco underfolder and the drum wouldn't lock into place. The person i got it from on the forum offered to take it back no problem and was glad for the offer. Decided to do some filing to get to to fit and it's a very good fit now. Any of you have problems with drum not fitting? Also it wouldn't fit in my SKS-D

Now for the range part; loaded up 2.5 boxes of ammo in it and wound it up and it functioned well, no jams.

It never dawned on me that the under folder won't fold with the drum in The other two benches were guys with bolt action guns so thought it would be a good idea to fold the stock up and put the drum in and stand up and start shooting.

The only thing that I didn't really like was the drum is so wide that it interfers with my normal shooting stance.

I find the drum to be more of a novelty on an AK than for actual use


Its great for a RPK though

What would be reasonable for 75rd chinese drums. I can buy them for $75 a pop from my local gun shop here.

They were $25 a piece before the ban.. too bad the price won't go down unless all the distrubutors sell out completely, then after a little while, we get another shippment of them. Highly unlikely.

75 for a chinese is a good price, they are usually around 100.

+1 with chinese parts being banned from importation I dont think we're going to see any more other than whats already here.
