Troy from BE was making them from Soumi drums.

PPSH-41 drum modified for M10 45 built in 2008
I thought I was one of the only ones who made one that worked!
I recently saw Troys....Great work!!
I removed the scroll and rolled out the bead, then rolled the drum body bead flat.
I needed even more room to allow for teflon strips so I built a drum stretcher
Then weld on new tower reinforcement plate

Wow. Expanding/stretching the drum body requires some serious know-how.Good job.
Man I would love to have one like this for my M11/9. How can I get one? ThanksOriginally Posted by skiboatsp

Sadly today Morality and Character are nothing more than expressions of people's personal taste
Liberal thought in any form derives from an inner desire to cover/justify guilt.- Me
A 9mm is a whole lot easier....no bead rolling, stretching...and cheaper!!
No kidding, nice work!Wow. Expanding/stretching the drum body requires some serious know-how.

Your Uzi sounds faster than normal... how did you speed it up?

Thanks
skiboatsp, really cool. I would to have one. Stroke left me without my right hand lol ... and a ban is looming on the way.
I got my hands on a Suomi and pre-ban uzi 9mm mag.. Can you show me the specs? Yes, I am a newbie.
I had to search out this thread.... I am trying to decide just how hard this conversion is to do? I have five Suomi Drum mags and a dozen of the steel Recon Ordance M11/9 mags so I can cut a few for towers.
The issue is I am not a welder but I need a new hobbie so perhaps I should look for a modest tig welder and start learning?
I did mine with a mig. A tig would be better but a mig works.
Bump.

Anyone got a recent link to a deal on Suomi magazines? I'd like to turn one of these drums into an m10/9 drum but I'd rather not chop a $50 mag from Lage. The best I can find is about 2/$40.
so .....I assume no one is selling these nowadays?
I tried my hand at a Suomi/ZMAG tower this weekend. I placed the tower ammo divider bend at the wrong location in the tower and that created a pinch spot that slows down the feed rate. Looks like I will try again next week after I get another ZMAG.

I've been making a couple of these recently for Uzis and I keep them "serviceable" until the end. I went so far as to drill and tap the magazines and use screws to hold in the "tower spacer" because everything has had to come back apart a few times on all of them. I also use what appears to be a thicker material for the middle... might help with warping.
Good luck with your drum, these things can be frustrating.
