with this whole (2 part) drum mag you could make the Patriot (Machine gun) out of Metal Gear Solid 3: SNAKE EATER
IT WOULD LOOK EPIC with the right shape (and size if you have enough knex)

Jul 19, 2008. 11:50 AMbannana inventor says:
Didn't think so... wait... what's the point?!? It just adds weight and bulk to your gun. idk
Jul 19, 2008. 7:38 PMHellchild says:
I see no point.

Im building a knex working tommy gun with a WORKING drum barrel magazine. It will hopefully be coming soon. BTW chekc out my Sawn- Off shot gun:Sawn off shot gun
Jul 21, 2008. 8:36 AMknexguy says:
Actually, Thompsons usually used straight magazines. They look ok, but would need to be extensively modified to actually load ammunition.
Jul 21, 2008. 12:20 PMapples!!!!! says:
yes thompsons usually use straight mags, but thats what a tommy gun is. a thompson wit ha drum mag. btw, im working on one ;)
Jul 18, 2008. 10:57 AMTrauts says:
Just for looks right? Still would look cool anyways because you could put one under with a grav fed mag ontop.
Jul 18, 2008. 2:29 PMflames10391 says:
or this with a regular mag built in the middle so it looks like a drum
Jul 19, 2008. 11:51 AMbannana inventor says:
That would be a cool idea.
