i SHOULD have taken your advise .......dropped drum at home on basement floor now frigging with the spring tube .
at least i have an idea on fixing it ( mean tome using my stick mags and spare low-cap drum.)

There is a problem with the drum mag feed spring tube.
the tube tends to take a straight angle and pinch off the BB flow.
So here is a quick fix using a strip of aluminium and 2 cable ties.
Those coloured BB's are good 0.2's even though they look like the naff type.

Now you see why it was worth me mentioning, thanks for the posting.
Free speech is expensive these days!
worked on the tube spring 1.5 hours..........today another hour .
the drum works now but still needs a bit of fine tuning ..........im going to install the support piece you mentioned.
besides the spring -tube i discovered dirt and a little crap inside the moving parts .........i guess when loading in the field some stuff got in the drum as well. a very good cleaning and THEN more frigging seemed to help.
thanks for the encouarging reply ............hahaha
I see there are new(-ish?) mid-cap drum mags available now for the Hexagon PPSh. Are they interchangable with the ST model, does anyone know ?
You've got nothing to ein, zwei, drei, vier

Alright mate, the ST and hexagon mags are not compatable the feed holes are in different places. Whether the internals can be stripped from one into the other i dont know but it will seem a lot of faffing about. When i run my PPSH at a more limited ammo event I use some high density foam to pad the internals of the mag out and stop the rattle that you will get in the mag.
You can buy a stick mag for the ST as I have done but it is still a high cap with a wheel.

OK, thanks guys.
