    Because it doesn't matter when the belts were made, as long as they were made for the military, for that firearm.

    "(f) is of the “belt” type consisting of a fabric or metal belt, is not a reproduction and was originally designed or manufactured for the purpose of feeding cartridges into a automatic firearm of a type that was in existence before 1945."

    That's your interpretation. I have never seen any official interpretation of the word reproduction in this context. Any words when not defined specifically by the legislation carry their plain dictionary meaning.

    Then read the whole section. Non reproduction belts for gun types designed before 45.

    Authentic belts, not reproductions.

    So original manufacture.
