interesting find...I wonder, was only the direct feed bin to the machinegun different or were the other regular storage MG ammo containers meant for tanks different too? Was this type of box also stowed inside the tank?
Hello good question. I know there were two big feed bins inside the fighting compartment. Presumably one for each machine gun there were storage bins for the main gun ammo in the rear of the turret. I guess another option to replenish the ammo would be to just furnished loose rounds and refill the belts?
