A type of cylindrical-shaped gun magazine which stores ammunition in a spiral layout (bullets aligned with the barrel), typically resulting in much greater capacity as compared to standard box/stick magazines. Usually associated with automatic firearms such as the iconic Thompson submachine gun and PPSh-41.

See also dual drum magazine, a paired variation often associated with the famous MG42 machine gun and real life Beta C-Mag.
