While the drum solution is ass, it was probably one of the only ways to get these into Canada these days.

I for one don't plan on converting my drum to an illegal device.
 
Honest question... if the drum mags function as if it were a simple rivet, why would someone be upset by the way it’s blocked?

If Trudeau truly does cause Armageddon then no one will be able to unpin their drum mags to fight off the zombie hordes. Duh.

Depending on how drums are neutered.. it can really effect the function. I had 3 Suomi drums that wouldn't function at all due to how they were pinned. Likely these drums were reduced in capacity by this method due to the rampant rumours that the next ban coming will include all centerfire magazines (permanently reduced or not) with an original capacity of over 5 rounds.

For me it would be a matter of authenticity. I like the mechanical mechanisms to observe and play with.

I missed out on the LMG purchase tho, so I don’t have a dog in the fight.

No, as far as I know, the import laws haven't changed and a pin is still acceptable. I would never modify my mags but I would at least have been able to insert the other 60+ cartridges for the weighty feeling, like a true canuck cope gun. This completely kyboshes that notion and 50% of my reason for wanting a drum.

I don’t mean to stir anything up but the overwhelming attitude in Alberta is that Trudeau can ban any rifle he wants with his pixie wand - hardworking, upstanding, Alberta gun owners will just keep shooting them.

I wouldn't mind keeping them if Tactical imports was willing to bring in the other parts and then give us the option to send them in to get them to convert it back to to original with a rivet...probably their best option as it sounds like they may get stuck with a ton of them now..

What makes us believe that they will accept return of all of these drums!?!
 
Large piece of sheet metal riveted over the inside, 81 drum on the right, standard ak drum on the left.

Sucks you guys got ripped off with fake magazines. Maybe the mods can do something about this like when Marstar sold a bunch of people fake Garands.
