Some random images showing the wooden MG08 ammo box, trommel box for the MG08/15 and a belt image. Naturally all rds shown safe, inert, deactivated - all German WWI dated! Mark

Great image of the standard trench mount. There were many variants but this is the most common. Fixed to a piece of wood the MG08 could be fixed in seconds so easily transportable. Ammunition re-supply remained a challenge though.
