Hi,

And is it camouflaged?

Btw, if you look good, you can see a face in the ammo box.Is this post-war or war-time?

Gilles,

Ammobox is for MG42 and MG34, I think the face is POSTWAR applied.

Would someone please correct me if I'm wrong, I'm not an MG specialist...

Thx junior.
Does anybody have a further opinion about the face ?

[junior]

If you want to buy an ammo-box with the original, standard color. Check out Ciney.

Or maybe the face was just lucky by the painter, but the colour is IMO post-war.
