Well, not to hijack Ryan's post, but I have a 1916 MG08 Company training manual for $75. Over 240 pages in surprisingly good condition for being 93 years old. Spine is torn somewhat, but still 95% there. All pages present and tight. Several pictures of the gun, sled, and bolt operation, and general training pictures. In German, of course.

If somebody would scan that manual at 300 dpi grayscale and email the scans to me, I could translate it...... :?
