What should I look for when looking for a 75 round drum? Particular make/model to look out for?

Anyone tried one of these: http://www.cdnninvestments.com/ak7675drnewa1.html

in my experience, the top loaded ones work better than the back loaded.

I prefer back loading ones, top loading ones are a pain in the ass to load. My chicoms have been 100% reliable.

My back loaders have never had an issue, i like that they are much easier to load, and i like that you can leave them loaded for long periods of time.

I hope this is found to be helpful.

It was a real "quickie" I put together the other night. I started this channel to do short video T&E stuff to accompany the articles I write and to answer tech questions when they come up. Although I have been writing technical articles for over 20 years, please keep in mind that I am a serious nOOb with video and I am learning on the fly. I promise I am taking all the constructive comments to heart and they will get better as I learn. :-)

If you find this helpful (I realize it will be below the basic level of the average person on this sight as you are much more advanced than the intended audience for this clip) but if you would be kind enough to take a look at my other videos I would appreciate it. If you think they may be interesting, educational or entertaining to others I would very much appreciate you subscribing, and passing the url around a little. I have some great stuff coming up on belt-feds, binary explosives, new weapon platforms, etc.

This right here. I don't wind the spring on my drum mags untill I am ready to shoot them.
I don't have any of the newer Korean? drums.
