define ammo box.

Do you mean the steel ammo cans or the wood ammo crates? I don't think there where any specific ammo Cans or crates for the MG42.

:lol: Or are you looking for the small cardboard boxes with 20 or so rounds,or the larger combat packs,with a bunch of the smaller boxes?? Are you confused yet,or are you looking for the steel ammo boxes with thr belts all loaded inside,ready for shooting?I am thinking the last one! ---bil

Mg34.com has the steel ww2 (style) ammo cans. They are un-marked Yugoslavian cans that you would need to refinish in the correct wartime colors. I've done this.

However, they are only like $15 bucks or so.
