Hi Cerjak. Where on earth did you find that cartridge belt? Those are so hard to find. Your's seems to be in decent condition. And, thanks to Dom we now know it is Moroccan. Great find. Congratulations.
Here is a cartridge belt I found on Ebay about a year ago. I think it is Turkish? It has been well used. The cartridge loops fir both a 8MM Mauser and a .303 British cartriges. Unfortunately, it's missing half the decoration on the belt portion.  Thanks for Posting yours. Very neat item. Rick.

...and an Omani one
Since this thread has attracted other eastern cartridge belts, here is one from Oman, looped for the Martini 577/450 cartridge. Age I think around 1950/1960 though of course the calibre was long superceded by the .303 British cal. by then.
