Thumbs up

Hi all
Very interesting answers so far, but somewhat astray of the question. How were the belts fed so as to prevent jams when the gun elevated thru as much as 90 degrees? Did they have some kind of flexible feed chute? I know a cartridge belt is quite flexible, but surely there was some kind of guide or support to allow for movement.
regards
TDD
