ETA: I may be confused with the HK21 on the "sunny side up" part - it's been years since I screwed with an MG3 and my references are out of reach. You'll have to file a report when you return from the range.
The German non-disintegrating belt is the DM1, 50 round belts which can be connected together and yes the links are on top.
