Looking at the water jacket armor. If it is way off I wasn't going to waste time. Thanks for the info.

Alan

How accurate is IMA's repro armor for the MG 08? Does it require "hand fitting"? Thanks

Alan

This very true.......

Matt,

Need to swap it for an 08 sled mount.

Alan

Matt,

I believe I have that parts kit.

Alan

Matt,

Thanks. I have a very good parts kit and was wondering.

Alan

I would imagine tht the arms manufacturers in Germany at the time appreciated having to make a different mount for the army and navy. Thanks for the information.

Bob,

Are there any registered side plates out there for 08/15s? What is the price on one installed on a parts kit vs. buying a complete gun?

Here is another mount. Any ideas on this one?

FYI on an Maxim 08/15 Gwf. Spandau 1917 DEWAT on gunbroker. Here is the link.

I wonder if the drag straps would work to pull this wagon?
How much ammo was in the basic load on one of these?
