I see prices are coming down, and J&G has a 75 rnd drum for $79, but its still just too high. Anyone got one they want to sell?

Not to hijack the post, but I am also interested in a drum for an AK and looking for a quality mag. Please give lawrnk first shot, but then consider me :thumbs2:

If you really want a drum go with one of the rear loading ones like the Chinese or Bulgarian. They are more expensive but worth it IMO.

The top loading Romanians drums are kind of a pain to load. I had two of them and traded both off for a single Norinco drum.

Also be aware that a drum loaded with 75 rds is HEAVY. I've used mine exaclty twice because of the weight and the fact that doing a 75 rd mag dump is kinda expensive.... but it is a lot of fun. ;-)

I want the polymer and was told that the Bulgarian Circle 10 mags were the best.
