ernestmayhand 10 Posted December 9, 2008 Report Share Posted December 9, 2008 (edited) Any special trick to getting this drum apart? It's a new bulgarian one with the 10 stamp. Directions say to push the center button and turn the ears CCW. Won't come apart From the instructions: "To disassemble the drum magazine, open the rear cover and depress the spring loaded button. Turn the spring tensioning key COUNTER-CLOCKWISE and remove it. Next, lift the spindle out of the magazine. DO NOT DISASSEMBLE THE MAGAZINE ANY FURTHER." So I turn the spring tensioning key COUNTER-CLOCKWISE and then the "removing it" is the hard part. Doesn't seem to want to budge or even look like it could be removed.

space_weazel 1 Posted December 11, 2008 Report Share Posted December 11, 2008 It appears those instructions are for the Romanian drum, see here: http://www.ak-47.us/Article_Detail.php?g=content1144092316 I'm playing with mine and it does not appear to come apart and all the Chinese drum specific information I can find just says to hand clean it and use an air compressor if needed.

ernestmayhand 10 Posted December 11, 2008 Author Report Share Posted December 11, 2008 I ended up just hosing it down with some brake cleaner. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
