Interesting for sure. It looks to me like the right hand weapon is the key. The "bin" is directly under the feed tray and there is an identical one forward of that for the left gun. What I am most curious to see and hear about is how the heck they did anything with the spent brass and links cause a 50 cal drops its trash out the bottom of the receiver so looking at that the tub area would fill up with spent brass~

Right down to individual screws...it doesn't get much more detailed than that.
