Wow! Lots of you have nice pictures... I understand you have the mag and the drill rounds. That's nice.

Since I posted my message, I found a 10 rounds magazine (I was sure it was 20 but according to the picture, it seems to be 10), like the one in the picture. By the way, the magazine is prohibited if not pinned at 5 rounds. Then, I got 4 empty cases of 106mm rounds. My goal is to get at least one inert projectile to make copies of it and fit the 4 cases with it to fill up the rack at the back of the Jeep I just got!

Later this week I will know if I can get a full box of 10 live rounds. Crossed fingers...

The belt you saw in the armoury was indeed a normal belt of .50 rounds. I don't think that any machine gun existed to fire linked M48 rounds or, someone just played with link and M48 rounds and may have assembled them together.

Having said that, thanks for posting on this message.
