    Was the drum magazine custom machined? In the U.S.? Nice work from what i can tell.

    Custom Metal Machining, i think it is made from synthetics and manufactured in the US.

    The drum is made by Allied armament. It seems to have A LOT of issues across the board. I have an MD Arms MD-20, No problems yet.

    That’s not an MD Arms drum, it’s from some other company, I just can’t remember *who*. The MD Arms drums are solid, and phenolic, if I remember right, these skeletonized ones are machined aluminum. They *are* very cool looking, and if memory serves me, they’re a 22 round drum.

  • Wolf

    Took me a couple minutes, but I found it, the skeletonized drum is by Alliance Armaments: http://www.alliancearmament.com/alliancearmament30rddrum.aspx .

    And it’s a *30* round drum, not 22, as I thought.

    Elitefirearms.net does really nice Saiga conversions as well. I had mine built for about 2200.00 and the gun kicks butt. What impressed me the most was that my Saiga 12 was able to shoot low grade dove/quail shot bump firing.
