I don't wish to appear "grumpy", but on reading through this thread, I think the response to Argie's first posting has been a little unfair and certainly unwelcoming. One can hardly expect a new member to have "contributed to the discussion of all aspects of Luger collecting"! I believe in cutting a newcomer some slack.
So, Argie, if you are still with us, I'd like to discuss your interesting drum and loader. If LU1900 thinks your drum is an AEG, he must have better eyes than I have. Can you post clearer photos of the top of the drum and top and bottom views of the loader handle? In your first photo it looks like the seam in the loader handle is on top, not on the bottom. If so, it was assembled upside down. Also, if the drum is marked B/N, as you say, and it turns out to be AEG, then something is very wrong.
Regards, Norm
P.S. A belated welcome to the forum!
