Bump.

While I am waiting for HKPARTS to "Investigate" my G3 bolt head issue (I sent it back for exchange) I decided to explore some options for drums beyond the factory one that is lacking the hanger.

I picked up an MG3 feed tray and some of the 50 round assault drums. Will try to make a nice adaptor to fit on the gun just for fun.

There is a fellow that makes a box hanger that was selling them on HKP.  He went off on us for calling bullshit on cryostructure and got what looks like a ban or timeout.   It fit in the holes on the bottom of the feeder hanger.  


These people are supposed to be producing a replica unit.

I'd hate to chop up a MG3 feed tray but I do have a few of those drums. Some guys just cut away enough material to run a pin through some of the stiffeners on the drum and the lower plate of the feed mech. I've heard that tends to snap off the curled part of the lower plate though. I have actually seen some that were broken so I don't doubt it.

Get a nutsack adapter for the bottom of the "magwell", way easier to source those than MG3 drums
