Question about an AK top loading drum magazine
I traded into a top loading AK47 drum magazine. The only markings on it AH-904 on the loading lever, and an R over 81 on the nut holding the axis pin. On the back of the axis pin there is a 0 in a diamond, and a 7 on the opposite side.
One local guy said he thought it was russian, and the AH is actually what we would say as AN in the Cyrillic language, but someone else said they thought it was romanian and then offered me 100 for it......
Nothing i've found online shows me for sure who may have made this thing. Anyone have any ideas or a good websight to look at? i'm thinking of just listing it with some good pics and the disclaimer i do not know who actually made it, but would like to know for sure.

It's Romanian. Although the local gent is correct that the letter character "H" represents that letter "N" in the Cyrillic alphabet, the character "R" does not exist in the Cyrillic alphabet. The character "P" represents the Latin letter "R" in Cyrillic. In addition, the two letter three digit code on the loading lever is indicative of a Romanian drum.
Here you can see the code marking from one of my own Romanian drums:
