Very nice! Have you posted it anywhere other than youtube? I'd like to show it to a friend at work, but they've got that site blocked.

Have you tried one on a suomi drum as well?

I have not saved it anywhere else. I have no interest in doing a suomi drum.

I am currently working on a belt fed M11/9.

Sounds interesting... enjoyed watching the beta mag dump. Anyway, he had specifically asked me if a beta mag could be used with an M11/9 after I showed him a video of mine running through the zytel mags.

Sure, though it was 7.62x39.

I'm very curious as to whether this is a 9mm upper, and how its feed mechanism is set up.

I'm just playing right now. I don't have the skill set to build a 9mm belt feed myself. I was hoping to modify an existing design. I'm thinking about tinkering with a Razorback or 1919 first.

Here's my latest failure. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ECOjjgGvvN4

Keep at it, we're all counting on you.

No pressure!

This thread reminds me I need to send off my Beta Mag to David.

That is killer. keep it up.

Dang....that'll seriously scratch the itch for sustained FA fire.

I've go to find a way to do 200 rounds. I need to find the link for the 9mm belt fed upper plans.

I don't think I've ever seen plans for a 9mm Mac upper.

I know of two 9mm beltfeds: one the Germans came up with at the end of WWII, and a proprietary system still in development.

I keep hearing about these. Does anyone have more information or pictures? Who is developing the the proprietary system?

I have been working on a couple of things just to find out it is patented and under development for a long time. I've even got my first threatening letter recently.

There was a thread on the German one in the last couple of weeks at subguns (or maybe sturm). Not a whole lot of info, but it did have pics of the links. Looked like miniature MG34/42 non-disintegrating links.

Who is developing the the proprietary system?

I can't provide any further info. If the designer decides to abandon the project I'd go into more detail.

Just watched the video again....just for fun.

Ugly but sweet. Just finding his picture helped with two problems I was having.

It's for sale over at Sturm.
