rare 30rd aluminium paratroopers magazine

Did not even know it existed. Very rare to get hold off I guess ??
Thanks for the info !
The aluminium mags took a fair bit of tracking down.The ultimate for me would have to be an 18rd Bakelite Dragunov mag, they are rarer than unicorn sh#t

No mate, VZ and AK mags are incompatible.Dragunov mags will only fit a Dragunov.

Sorry for the thread hijack folks ussrflag

Sorry I don't have any, but it is seriously cool. The rate of fire is impressive, but I can see you could easily bankrupt yourself on ammo. Ho hum... :grin:
