Thanks for the help in determining the value of some MG mounts, here are
some more details:

They are current production, based on the paint (not WWII). I dont know
what they came off.
they have a tray for the ammo can on the left, with a spring loaded
"foot", the tray adjusts up and down
with a cam to lock it in place.
There are two pull pins to mount the gun. On the right is a round case
for the spring(?) that provides up/down
tension, it looks like a fire hydrant outlet cover.
The male part that fits into the mount is 5 inches long and about 11/2
wide with a wider part at the top. The shaft
is machined to be held in with a pin.
One has a pin to hold the mount in up/down position when not in use, the
other has a t-bar under the front.
