#### Description
|
||
|
A 75 round drum based off of the classic AKM/RPK drum, dedicated to the gun-grabbing California State Senator Yee. This CAD contains parts derived from Defense Distributed's Feinstein Magazine.
|
||
|
|
||
|
#### Construction
|
||
|
**WARNING** This is an alpha-quality release. A working drum will require significant manual adjustment.
|
||
|
All parts should be printed at 100% infill.
|
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
|
#### Assembly
|
||
|
|
||
|
View the exploded view for reference
|
||
|
1. Place the torsion spring inside the inner circle of the large drum body. The spring's outer key should align with a notch in the center ring of the body. The spring should be inserted into the body in the clockwise orientation.
|
||
|
2. Feed the guide rod through the hole in the front of the drum body, while aligning the small slot with the torsion spring's center loop.
|
||
|
3. Place the torsion spring cap over said spring. It should fit snugly.
|
||
|
4. Place the key spring around the small cylindrical arm of the key, then place the key spring-first into the center hole of the guide rod. The arms of the key slide into the notches of the guide rod.
|
||
|
5. Place the nubs of the follower in the holes of the spindle arm.
|
||
|
6. Align the notch in the center of the spindle with the arms of the key, then push the spindle until the guide rod emerges through.
|
||
|
7. Put the winder through the hole in the center of the rear body plate. Put the c-clamp around the notch in the winder.
|
||
|
8. Align the tabs on the rear body shell with the notches on the front body shell and join the two, making sure the winder is properly aligned with the key.
|
||
|
|
||
|
#### Operation
|
||
|
|
||
|
The procedure for loading the drum is very similar to that of other drums.
|
||
|
|
||
|
1. Remove the rear cover
|
||
|
2. Push the key down to remove tension on the spindle
|
||
|
3. While holding the key down, rotate the spindle clockwise until the follower prevents further movement
|
||
|
4. Insert ammunition into the available spaces
|
||
|
5. Replace the rear cover, taking care to properly align the winder with the top of the key
|
||
|
6. Turn the winder counter-clockwise until sufficient tension has been achieved
|
||
|
|

|
#### TODO
|
||
|
* Modular magazine body (e.g. interface with SKS)
|
||
|
* Adapt drum to accept readily-available torque springs
|
||
|
* Adjust for tolerances/reliability
|
||
|
* Adapt for better printability
|
||
|
* Fix follower
|
||
|
* Tweak winding mechanism
|
||
|
* Adjust drum body tabs
