Gun and gear reviews Getting the band back together..

Looks like there’s a path for the 110rd GSG16 Drums collecting dust, to work with the 10/22..

Picked up this printed 597 neck adapter on GP. Making these drums effectively 110rd 597 magazines.

Angle of the neck seems correct with the bolt, and the 3d print quality seems decent.

Would love to see an aluminum neck option.

Hopefully these run better than the promag drums.

Range test soon

I honestly don’t understand how this is any different than just using a purpose built 110rd gsg mag for a 10/22. Like this plus a mag well adapter just makes a semi purpose built 10/22 mag. Or is it like if I put a 10/22 adapter right onto the magazine, straight to jail.

Also fallow up question if you put this all into a ruger charger does that mean straight to jail. Like is the magazine marked anywhere stating what firearm it’s intended for? My apologies just overthinking all of this.

You cannot permanently modify a magazine. So I can buy 597 drum mags, print an adapter so it fits in my 10/22, and use it. I can permanently attach the adapter to my magwell, since modifying the firearm is allowed. But God forbid if I were to permanently attach the adapter to the 597 mag then I'd be an evil criminal and Nathalie will come drag me straight to jail
