This is a very nice find MG15 machine gun drum magazine which is in relic condition with some rust holes and rust damage but still a nice find. The magazine which has no real maker stamps that can be seen it also has its ammunition spacers inside of it as well and does have a large impact hole and damage to the bottom of magazine and still with some of its original black paintwork remains. The magazine is rusty but nice it has been very well cleaned and is perfect for display or any collection and is very solid not breaking up or crumbling and is still a very solid relic and very rare to get in such nice condition.
