Ammunition By The Drum

Chaos311Clarity laughs at your minuscule ammo stockpile.  He gets it by the drum:

XM855BAR is 5.56x45mm 62 gr.  Yea that would be quite a bit of fun with an AR-15.

Make sure you also check out Chaos’ dope YouTube channel by the same name.

  1. Local gun-shop here in Raleigh gets these drums, and sells it by the handful.

  2. Would love to know how much you actually save by getting it in bulk like that.

    1. Last I saw, it was ~$3600 for the drum+ $200 shipping. Which comes out to just a hair more than $0.30/rd, which is about what I pay for M855 in 1000rd cans.

      1. i have never looked for a drum but the shipping always brings it to the same as gun store prices where i live.

      2. Where did you see this?

  3. thats 12500 rnds in a drum.
    there are things called drum madazines.
    therefore this is a 12500 rnd magazine!
    ban it, ban it! oh, wont somebody think of the children

    1. i meant magazine, but madazine does sound pretty good

  4. Holy cow that’s a ot of ammo!!!

  5. Fap fap fap fap fap fap…..

      you done? k, my turn..

  6. I assume you can only get this direct from the manufacturer?

  7. “Not packaged for individual sale”

  8. Well that doesn’t seem safe

  9. never thought having that much ammo at one time was legal to civilians.. well I want to order up.

      they can’t make such purchases illegal.

      actually, CA wouldn’t surprise me..

  10. Now what would be scary is if the guy has enough magazines to hold every round, or enough links to feed an M249. ;-)

  11. Sure it would be fun with an AR15, but how much fun can one really have with a semi automatic rifle and 12,500 rounds of glorious M855. I agree with Jim P, think big and run it through an M249, MG4, or a Negev :)

  12. Damn that’s a lot of ammo. Roughly estimated, that can must weigh at minimum 480lbs, given that a 420rnd can of XM855 weighs 16lbs. Honestly, I’d rather have boxes and cans. That or a trustworthy delivery crew.

  13. wow. Must be fricken heavy…

    1. Ok, the truth is, I only posted this comment to try to figure out how to get a different avatar pic. Mike, do you only let special people have those?

      1. i think i changed mine with gravatar

    I wonder if that is for training/practice, or is he just another crazy doomsday prepper who prob sucks at shooting?

    1. Even if he sucks at shooting — 12,500 rounds gives you a lot of room for error. :-D

  16. LOL *starts crip walking* this. is. how. we. do.

  17. Given his videos,that’s about almost maybe 2 minutes of full auto footage. ;)

  18. Do you know if any of this is avaliable anywhere? Thank you
