Hi Sotero, I can fix your drum for you, as I have that replacement part on hand! The issue is, I have to disassemble the whole drum to get to it. So, while I have it all apart, I correct any issues and lube it for correct function as well. I've sent you an email outlining what you need to know in sending it to me for the required repair. Best to you, til....lat'r....GT...

Hi Pat, NUMRICH drums were produced and imported in one shot... All of the parts were assembled, and all drum sets were imported.
The drums that were imported had three major failings! First, most all will not fit, second, because of friction traps and rough internal surfaces, all most all would not work! And third, if you were lucky and go one that fit and functioned, it will, in short order, break!

That sums up the drums prior to revision.
After revision, the drums fit, 95% of the time, work 99% of the time, and will last and work without breaking for repetitive use at the range.
After the revision process is complete, and the drums tested, a small GT in a circle (can some one post a pic?) is stamped on the outside of the drum shell by the bottom corner where it transitions to the stick mag part of the assembly. If marked, it has been revised, if not, no revision!
See if your drum is so stamped, to tell what to expect in the future.
I am currently working on the next 100+ drums from Numrich, and it is going to take me several months to do them all... Maybe late summer, mid fall... more will be back in stock at Numrich,... best to all, til.....lat'r.....GT
