They were manufactured and given to both Guo Min Dong 國民黨 and Chinese Communist Force 共產黨, known as "七九美" (Chi jiǔ Mei) by the Chinese.

美造 (Mei zào) - U.S. Manufactured
七九 (Chi jiǔ) - 79 (In this case 7.9mm)
机槍 (Ji Qiāng)- Machine Gun (Probably they were lack of this ammo for the CEZ or Chinese copy CBZ 26/CBZ30)
尖彈 (Jiān Dàn) - Sharp tipped bullet

The word 机 (Simplified Chinese) 機 (Traditional Chinese), both words mean machine, engine or aircrafts...etc

U.S. exported these ammo to Chinese forces in 1942, 1943 and 1944.
