True........but 7.62x39 packs a bit more punch than 9mm. :ok:

I'm waiting for the price to come down on these and might then get one for the novelty of them. Don't see the point unless I had a full auto gun. If these are the new korean knockoffs havent heard enuff about them. For this price I can pick up 18-20 thirty round mags and if one breaks I've got seventeen more.

Yeah I sold my chinese ak drum and ended up buying a bunch of cheap 30 rounders off of AIMSurplus the same week I sold it.

Would love to get some of these at like $50 a pop. The korean AK mags work very nicely and so far I haven't heard any negative comments on these drums.

75 rounds on an AK gives one a huge advantage in the middle of a real shit blizzard, just like the Beta mag gives one a huge advantage on an AR.

Things break...1 or 2 drums with 75-150 rounds they crap out or 5 magazines with 150 rounds and they are smoother to swap out. Just a different perpective, choose for yourself what you want on hand.

The Norinco (which in reality is the PLA) drums and the SK knock-offs can remain loaded forever without spring tension, which can be applied anytime. About as likely to be a spring issue as any 30 round mag, and probably less chance since there's never spring tension until it's applied. Being that it's a clock spring rather than a coiled spring helps also.

There's no replacement for displacement.

Just got my two drums today and they look good. Filled them up and I'll test them out tomorrow. Think I'll keep a drum in my AK and plenty of 30 and 40 round magazines to reload with when they run dry or if they malfunction.

I bought one of the Korean drums in a local shop and had to take it back.

It wouldn't seat in the magwell of my SAR-1.

YMMV.

Hmmmm........I had a similar problem with a WASR awhile back and simply ground down some metal and re-squared the front corners (towards the barrel) of the magwell to help it fit. It worked out pretty well. Just FYI.

:wink:

I tried out one of the 75 rd Korean made drums today from centerfire systems. I didn't really intend to unload the whole thing all at once but I've got a Tac trigger on my AK and when I got started I couldn't get stopped! No problems from start to finish!

Awesome! Glad to hear that they worked. You wouldn't happen to have a video of today's adventure now would you?? :biggrin:

Zusn I don't know how to do the videos so no video. It was fun though! I've got a big wood pile and that was what I unloaded it into. There were wood chunks and chips flying!

This guy in the video has a full auto AK and is shooting at a wood pile. He unloaded his drums faster than I can with a tac trigger but it doesn't seem much faster to me. Think I'll stick to one drum at a time because I don't want my AK catching on fire.
