What? Will doesn't "cast" his products, he molds them. Casting is for resin. anyways, I still support this! I saw the new MG42 drum proof-of-concept, but it just doesn't cut the mustard for this acessory.

Well, it's not really meant to as that item is meant to be an MG42 ammo drum. If Will were to design a magazine for the Combat LMG, it would be based on modern box magazines.

Wait! What? What MG42 ammo drum?

I'd love a ammo box for the Combat LMG, because I agree with Chandler on this, it's just not complete by itself.

Check out my Flickr! My big vignette is almost done. Should be finished in a month or two!

I thought that this needed some more speculation, becasue no one's posted on ti in a while, so this post will get it started. Do people thinnk that it should be an underslung, box-like design, or a side-mounted drum-like design? I prefer the undersling, trapezoidal box, because I love the M249 SAW. The MGL drum works for the side-mounted type, so it would only make sense for the box-type to be made, if an accessory like this is made at all.

I'm guessing that it would fit into the slot of the combat lmg?

I believe that's one design possibly being explored. From previous comments in this thread, however, it seems that most people so far (like myself) prefer an underslung design:

Perhaps the magazine could be made somewhat like the PPsH drum and clip on under the LMG.

Does it ever seem that the intelligent parts of posts are the parts ignored?

Will doesn't cast anything; he injects! ;)

One word, but they're two very, very different methods of production.

If and when Will ever revisits the idea of an ammo box for the BrickArms LMG, rest assured as soon as it's publicly unveiled, you'll read about it on this board!

I'll take your word for it.
