I am looking for info on the use of the German MG in indirect fire. Is there a chapter in this manual?? Thank you!

Unterrichtsbuch für die Maschinengewehr-Kompagnien, Gerät 08. Mit Genehmigung des Königlich Preußischen Kriegsministeriums vom 9.9.1907. 21. Aufl.
Merkatz, Friedrich von. And/or later manuals of course!

Khukri there manuals that cover it and indeed some great info in the post-war ones too. I am away from home so cannot help you just now.

I found that an 08 on a sled makes a good mail box stand.

No Gustav no this is not true! Is it?

It was a nice day... so WHY not photograph the MG08 and MG08/15 in the garden? My Guns of August.

Post by **b.loree** » Sat Aug 15, 2020 7:54 pm

Excellent Pete, great photo. Love that camo stahlhelme!

That's a lot of firepower there! What a great set!!

Peter_Suciu · Post by **Peter_Suciu** » Sun Aug 23, 2020 9:47 am

Does anyone have any high resolution period images of the MG08 and/or MG08/15 I could use for an article?
