haugpatr 972 Posted December 3, 2011 Report Share Posted December 3, 2011 Just missed the boat on this one, Centerfire had the Korean 75rd drum for $50 when buying 2 or more($55 for one) last week. I hope they bring the deal back! They have a "12 deals of Christmas" promotion. They are currently on deal 3. You are 100% correct, every AK owner should have a drum! I would up the anty and say a drum for each AK! 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Would love to have one but i dont think jail is a fun place.. Any Chinese (Norinco or Polytech) drum is pre-ban (made, and imported before Sept. '94) and is perfectly legal in NYS.

TARE 47 Posted December 22, 2011 Report Share Posted December 22, 2011 You shouldn't avoid chinese, they're great. I think the romanian wind up drums are the best bang for the buck. Wind up is key for me, and I don't buy the korean. Of course russian are the most desirable, then I believe the norinco (chinese) are the next most preferable. Wind ups load easier and you can store them loaded under no spring tension. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
BpS12 512 Posted December 24, 2011 Report Share Posted December 24, 2011 Everything I've heard says to avoid the Koreans. There should be a thread or two on here somewhere talking about the issues, cheap metal, spring issues, etc. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Didn't know that. I have a converted saiga and am currently using 30rd pre-ban AK mags. But at $30 a pop what the local shop sells them for its a rip off.I have a pre-ban 50rd drum for a thompson but haven't taken it to the range just so i don't have to hear anything from people who don't know what there talking about Quote Link to post Share on other sites
