Thanks, I think that I was pretty lucky to find it.
I've found 3 or 4 interesting MG34/42 accessories in the past few months.

Good work, sounds like you are on a roll :D

Early designed bolts would fall apart in the belt pouch. This clip was made to hold the bolt head and bolt housing together while in the pouch. Later designed bolts didn't need the clip, so it was discontinued.

It is therefore a rare, and for practical purposes, a useless piece, other than to collect. I have one or two (I forget which) myself, along with a few other little trinkets.

I do have a few large and small parts boxes to sell, and one of the ruptured case extractors. :)
