I've got an '18 dated brass tab Vickers belt, broad arrow proofed, that I have used for years with my German MG08, and I just loaded again for an MG shoot in a few weeks. I noticed that the makers mark is NMM over B. It's a brass tabbed, 250 round belt, in very good condition, well used but in good shape. Anyone know who NMM over B would have been? Any ideas as to value? Im not a collector of British stuff, and I don't have a Vickers, so it's going to carry ammo to my 1918 MG08 again, but I thought someone here might know who made it!  |

Can't help on the maker, but an identically marked example is illustrated on page 475 of Goldsmith's "Grand Old Lady". |

Didn't know that, but the last copy of the "Grand old lady" I saw for sale, they wanted an obscene price for. I'll try to look in one if I find another!  |
