I thought I'd show this off, mg34 double drum magazine.
hard to find.
was asked question about it on another forum.
this one is dated 36, 1 internal part marked 35 , 2 others marked 34 (do not if these are dates ?).
I do not own the top cover for this, yet.

Last, close up of the inside ,showing some markings.
very rare item to find, many people have questions about them.

I wanted to show since many people think the Plentiful mg15 drums are the same/ interchangeable between the guns ; which is wrong.
many current "gun dealers" still state these work on the mg34, when selling them. They do not.
check out the subtle differences externally between the 2.
still ,if you do not have the correct top cover you can't use either on the mg34.

yes I own the mg 15 drum also , if one needs photos.
Thank you for looking!

you welcome !
many find the mg 15 drums & think they have the mg 34 version.
the mg15 type jam up continually ,if used on the mg 34.
But still sellers state it will work , just to get the money.
