MG34 or MG42 Ammunition Box (Patronenkasten 41). The M34 ammo cases were originally developed for use with the MG34, and held up to three hundred rounds of the 7.92mm ammunition. The M34 and M41 cases were used through-out the war with minor construction variations and were adopted for use with the MG42 on its introduction. This case is a late war steel example having nice fieldgrey coloured paint, the case is showing some normal scratches caused by usage. The box is nicely marked with 'Patr.Kast.41.f.M.G.', the box is nicely maker marked and dated with 'sxb 1945'.Rare original 1945 dated example in good used and uncleaned condition as found!
