A box support (2) is provided on both sides with shackles (4) to make it easier to attach an ammunition box (1) to the gun mount (35) for an automatic weapon and to ensure better access to the cartridge feed belt for the loading and reloading operation, as well as to reduce the ergonomic stress when attaching the ammunition box to the gun mount. These shackles (4) have respectively one holder (5) at a distance downward that is used for suspending the ammunition box (1) such that it can pivot. The ammunition box (1) is provided with bearing bolts (13) for this purpose. Two fastening locations (7, 8) for the ammunition box (1) are provided in a longitudinal axial direction of the box support (2), at non-symmetrical distances to the holders (5). If the ammunition box (1) is suspended in the holders (5), the distance a between the first fastening location (7) and the holders (5) corresponds to the distance between the holders (5) and a first locking device (16). In contrast, the second fastening location (8) is arranged on the box support (2) at a distance to the first fastening location that corresponds to the length (L) of the ammunition box (1). Thus, following the suspension of the ammunition box in the holders (5) and a pivoting movement of the box around the holders (5), the ammunition box (1) can assume a slanted loading position (9). Following a second pivoting movement around the first fastening location (7), the box (1) can assume an ammunition unloading position (12). |
