I wonder why they put the bamboo across the top edge of the MG shields?
possibility of sharp edges from shots
Tooth saver? Fast stops hurt.
Or maybe just heat/comfort? If you were standing resting your hands or say elbows on that while looking through binoculars or something, maybe that would be more comfortable than a sun-heated sharp edge????
Had to be to avoid injuries from an edge contact...
