Legality of bullet belts in European countries

I was looking to purchase a bullet belt for myself because I think they look neat and all, but then I realized how sketchy importing something like that is (especially to a European country).
I was wondering if there's anyone who's currently living in Poland or a bordering country, that could share their experience.

Additionally, has anyone here brought their belt with them when traveling across borders? I'll be flying out to Berlin to see Sodom soon and I would like to bring one with me, but at the same time I don't wanna get put on some kind of a No Fly List.

Thanks.

In the Netherlands you could wear them.
Buy them at Dump/Thrift stores back in the day.
Some venues/festivals/gig places refused entry with them on though.
But that's 10 years ago, no idea how it works now.
If I have to buy a new bullet belt to fit it would be 105 mm howitser shells instead of the 556/762 shit we had back in teh day since I've grown a bit :)

You can't fly with them, not even in check-in luggage. But if you travel by road or rail you won't have any problems, within the EU at least. Trying to cross a Schengen border might be another matter. I've taken mine on a Flixbus without any problems.
I'm pretty sure you can't import it though. But you can pick one up at a festival pretty easily.

Here in the UK our border control would very likely seize and even destroy anything ressembling muntions.

If you are thinking about buying - or selling - a bullet/cartridge belt just remember that it is a risky thing to ship internationally as postal services may well freak out and also it's a heavy item so the postage would cost you a lot too.

Any bigger festival in Poland is not allowing bullet belts. They don't even allow chains attached to pants, it's ridiculous
