Abstract: Mounting ammunition holders for side loading machine guns and weapons that downwardly eject spent cartridges, include adjustable hinges attached side plates that both moves the center of gravity of the left side supported ammunition holder to move in a right direction underneath the machine gun until the ammunition holder is balanced relative to the machine gun. The side plate further deflects the spent cartridges from being directly ejected downward from the machine gun and instead deflect the spent cartridges to one side of the machine gun away from both the machine gun and an operator of the gun. The am-munition containers can be ammunition belt boxes and am-munition pouch bags. Frames can allow for bags to be in-serted therein and be pre-shaped to form a deflection sur-face by a built on side wall which functions as a deflection plate to deflect spent cartridges and shells sideways away from the gun.
