Initial Impression

It's plastic with a flat black look and grainy texture.... cool! It feels tough enough though. hehe it won't rust and rattle that much and much more lighter. Seems sturdy enough, well let's hope so.



Initial testing

I was in a big hurry to test so it as so I just picked up any bottle with bb's in it. What I got was this mixed up one with .2, .25, and .28 and even some black one. Opened it up and poared the bb's. You don't even need to open the drum mag since it has small opening on top yet it's much faster to load the bb's when fully opened. About 2800 bb's can be loaded. Loaded the drum mag in my JG ak and wow it fits really nicely. Pressed the switch which btw takes just about 30 secs or so to fully wind it up and fired away just some few burst first. Good! Then lets try longer ones, still very good until I started shooting way longer about 3-5 secs burst.
Some misfeeds. So tried pressing the switch while firing, now it's much better and with lesser misfeed.

The next day plugged in my newly charged up 12 volts nicad batt pack on the jg ak and boy there
are misfeeds again even while the switch is press during firing. ROF was really fast about 20-23 rps. So tried using .12 bb's, much better feed but hey I won't use this bb's on real games.

Now let's try it on my CA SLR. Fits good as well. ROF here is much slower so this time the feed
was really flawless using ics .2 bb's.





Initial field test

Tried it out last Sunday and it truly performed really well I was hitting the switch after each long burst and boy it's a heaven sent. No hits yet from other players so far just to know how tough it's plastic body is. I was using my CA slr btw.
Conclusion...
I'll give it a 7 out of 10. Those misfeeds on really hi rof and heavy bb's shld be solve using
higher voltage for the servo motor and may be a stronger spring. Hey you can't be too
demanding since it's a very cheap drum mag afaic and yet since I'm not really be using this
most of the time so those flaws ain't too bad, it can be remedied as always in the acm world of
skilled adiks hehe.




For Pure Practicallity

Prize wise and those m249/m60 frustrated people who needs to spend their hard earn money on other important matters this drum mag is a perfect 10.
