    Thumbs down

    Opninons very widely. I think there are much better things to expend nearly 500 bucks on.

    That would be sweet, but very steep in cost. Id opt to pick up a pistol for the price of it. Besides my AR10 as is is sooo f'ing heavy. But nice. That would be a cool mag to have if defending a position.

    Only us eI could ever see for this would be used in a rifle mounted on a bipod defending a position or your home in a zombie apocalypse. Pretty much a situation where you do not have to move more than a few feet.

    Therefore, not logical to buy it.

    When I bought my first AK I saw 75rd drums and was like 'I have to have one'. Didn't take me long to realize how impractical it was. Any advantage of having that much ammo in 1 mag is negated by weight, time to reload it and the fact that it's diffult to carry on your person.

    Agreed. However, IMO the fun factor is worth it for an AK drum, considering the cost can be less than $100. Or at least used to could. And really it would be practical if you had a proper drum pouch and a full auto RPK. Not so much on a semi-auto carbine. It does look pretty bad on my Draco, though.
