"Albatros" go with just one "s" at the end. Therefore, your weathering is
all wrong.

Strange that there's no phisical connection between the cartridge (or link)
exit and the box, as in the case of German machine guns. Perhaps due to a
different ejectiom mechanism on the Austrian guns?
Perhaps because they liked to watch the cartridges exiting (and shout "Die,
you damned Italian!" and laugh gloomily?)
