Gun Question

Posted on 01/30/2005 3:31:17 PM PST by Free and Armed

Today at a gun show I bought a pre-ban European AK-47 drum magazine (75 rounds). I have no idea how to open and load the thing, and only been able to find instructions for the Chinese ones, which are different than mine. Does anybody know how to operate the pre-ban European style AK-47 drum magazine? Or have a link I can go to that gives step by step instructions?

Nah, its broke. It won't work, ever. Forget it.

How much do you want for it?

Don't have any experience with it myself (I'm a snout-loader fan myself) but I suggest you contact the techs over at www.cheaperthandirt.com.. They sell the pre-ban drum magazines for 89.95, and likely have diagrams or a pamplet which they can forward to you.

Hello,

Does any manufacturer's name or model number appear on the drum? This may help in narrowing down which drum it is and then how it's used.

Mag KA-47 Drum page has a photo of it in use, plus the link to talk to a tech.

What would posess you to purchase such a device of the devil, especially at an evil gun show?

Were there any good Smith & Wessons there? Preferably 5-screw pre-Model 27? :)

Cause I'm an evil right-wing Christian who wants to deprive women of choice and set up a Southern Baptist theocracy in America. DUH!

No. He tried to create an air of being somebody at one time. But he's always been a nobody.

Well, first you take your powder horn and pour a measured amount of powder into the barrel. Then you take a wad of paper and stuff it down the barrel with a rod. Pour in the shot of choice, tamp it down, light the fuse, point the gun in the general direction of the barn wall you're trying to hit, close your eyes, and pray.

For a faster rate of fire, hire 75 gun reloaders. Illegal aliens are cheap and available. If any of them screw up, make them stand in front of the barn wall.
