To the best of my recollection, these will display well with a real Luger, but the magazine tube was designed to NOT hold real ammunition... just the mock ammo that came with the MGC non-firing replica. You can tell these from REAL 32 round magazines by the slot in the side of the magazine tube that exposes the magazine spring. Real trommelmagazines do not have this slot.

John, the other dead giveaway is the "MGC" stamped on the drum body! Worth maybe $100 for display. The "WE" Luger drum mags also look OK at a glance, new for the same price or less, but definitely won't fit.

Default ebaydrum

There's another snail drum (toy) on ebay. Starting bid is 600.00. The seller has all the disclaimers you can think of. The seller even's tells you it will not work. I'm sure someone will buy it.
