enarmade banditer
Explanation:
Reels refererar till "hjulen" i banditerna.

Spelautomater är kanske ett trevligare ord.

Google ger mängder av träffar om \"reels\" på enarmade banditer (slot machines) och man syftar väl då på hjulen inuti maskinen.

Att det används även i USA såg jag i ett dokument om programmering (fusk) av spelautomater, skrivet av en amerikansk journalist som undersöker myndigheternas kontroll av detta (bl.a. i Vegas).

  -> Tack Tomas
agree  Thor Truelson: I agree that these fit, but only if you're talking about slot machines. I have never heard of a "reel" before. Maybe the Brits call it that.
