Jtm35a2 Posted September 16, 2023 Report Share Posted September 16, 2023 I have all the other suomi mags, sticks/coffins/70 round drums. I would like to add 40 round drums to the collection. Anyone know where to find them? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beltfedup Posted September 19, 2023 Report Share Posted September 19, 2023 I have several suomi drums..how can you tell if they are 40rd? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jtm35a2 Posted September 19, 2023 Author Report Share Posted September 19, 2023 The 40 round drums only have 2 runners/snails inside that lead to the feed lips. I believe they are a smaller o.d. than the 70 round drums. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slowmo Posted October 10, 2023 Report Share Posted October 10, 2023 I did not know 40rd drums even existed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

3rdmardiv Posted October 16, 2023 Report Share Posted October 16, 2023 Just out of curiosity, if you can get a 70+ round drum, why a 40? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To round out my suomi mag collection. I think there was also a 25 round coffin mag. As a side note, I can load drums faster than I can load sticks or coffins, with alot less finger wear and tear Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Labanaktis Posted October 17, 2023 Report Share Posted October 17, 2023 They pop up on GB often. Try a WTB on the board Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
