I looked again at that photo, and Diegos probably right, it perhaps isn't a funnel it's more of a chute, so
covered and nowhere near as fun. I guess both the spent shells and cloth belt, went down that chute
into the aluminium box on the floor.

PS. I removed an S from Albatros, so the Argentinean nit-picker can return to watching football
      and drinking beer, or whatever else he does.

"I found a couple of photos, that show two big pipes that go into that box, and a square funnel thing just to the left of the gun."

Please show us the photos. Aren't there two things that exit the gun: the spent brass shells and the empty cloth belt? (Did they have metal links in WWI?)
