Jim;

Griffon Models has a PE / resin kit of MG 34/42 stuff with 6 - 8 belt-boxes (in two different styles), 6 drums, 2 drum-carriers, and assorted full and partial MG belts. VERY cool stuff, IMO.

This is kit

Item No GRM-L35A004
Description WW II German Ammo Boxes/Belts/Drums for MG34&MG42

Now, finding this ... it of course comes and goes in stores.
