How to clean 75 round drum mag question

[ak-medicine]

Finally getting around to cleaning my 75 round drum mag and would like instructions on the best ways to do it?

Also, are there directions and a parts drawing of it available somewhere that explains how to to load and disassemble it? Thanks for any help.

first off, there is nothing internally that needs to be disassembled.......and I wouldn't go trying to take the internals apart.

there might be some packing grease in there that may need to be wiped out.....but that is the extent of any cleaning that needs to be done to it.

to take the back off, stick a round in the middle of the knob, at the same time turn the knob 90 degress right or left, the knob will come off and you will be able to take the back off.

as for loading the drum, pull up on the lever that is on the front, load a round in the tower, release the lever.....repeat 74 more time

Umm brake cleaner or carb cleaner (spray kind) then rem-oil it???

Works great here.
