Loading tool for the trommels.

I can barelly make it out! I think its the dust cover?

Fantastic! Hope to have the same someday. Is the Trommel case original? I'd be happy with a modern made example. Thanks for the "Bring & Brag".

Everything is original

gunnertwo · 10-13-2020, 01:33 AM

All the better! Can't be many of those surviving. Quite the find.

Nice rig! I am happy enough with my repro drum and refinished 1914 Erfurt LP-08, this is absolutely beautiful!

Eric, That is a real nice grouping and photo you have there!!! Is the P Kasten one of the reproductions Jerry B and company teamed up to build? They were very true to original in detail and a work of art. I think that on all made, the bottoms were branded as such.

Enclosed is a pic one of my originals. Yes, it is full of trommels, and loader. John

I have an original box, but with replacement dividers.

Kiwi · 10-15-2020, 08:52 AM

Have any of you used the Trommels?
If so how well did they function?.

Many high capacity magazines jam a lot
curious

Yes,
they work fine :
original- in good shape, some have problems;

Numrich reproductions- if you improve them a little or a lot, depends on what you get; better to buy one of GT's already reworked trommel mags from them - be sure to ask for and verify the circled
GT stamp.

GT has posted about the mods and there are other threads on use of these.

Beautiful, I could't afford an original about 5K!
