Pit...

Technically #s 5 and 6 would not be german unless they were an MG26(t) and an MG42

So what is the story on the MG's? Local collection in your area? Public or private?

[pitfighter]

ZB26 is waffen marked DOT manufacture - the barrel being the most heavily proof marked.
The receiver is not marked MG26(t) - though that would have been it's designation, you are correct.
Yes - the Yugo M53 is what it is - not German -
Also - The MG15 is resting on a spare ZB26 Bi-pod - it will be going into an IMA-USA ground mount with an MG34 bipod on it.
Collection needs an MG81 in ground configuration and an Mg34/40 - to complete the 3R bipod collection.
(And an original MG42 - of course, there is an MG34, currently with .07 in the shop.)

Just a fun exercise really - as there had been no posts in a day or too.

Going back into my cave now.
