stainless mg belt

[McGyver]

I found this belt close to the russian border in norway, by the road to petsamo.
Its german but I cant find much info about it.
I belive it is the stainless 250 round belt made for the mg34 in the early days.

Nice belt, i knew they exist, but this is the first one i see. Early mentioned for the MG34.

It's a Gurt (belt) 33 made by Simson & Co (S stamped on the starter tab). Simson soon became bsw, and then gustloff. Simson was a Jewish company hence the change in ownership under Nazi rule. Jonathan.
