Aluminium MG34 u. MG42 ammunition case in two tone camouflage

Stunning aluminium MG34 u. MG42 ammunition case in factory brown/blue camouflage with a later field applied tan camouflage. The case is a nice early example with a wartime tan camouflage finish. The case was originally found in Saint-Côme-du-Mont, right in the middle of the dropzones for the 101st Airborne Division in Normandy. The case has wartime applied stencils for the E for Ersatzteilkasten and a additional Gurtfuller marking on the top indicating it would have once housed the belt loader. The closing clasp is broken which is typical for these early cases. The case is a beautiful camouflaged example that would be very hard to upgrade and a nice honest piece!
