08/15 100 round drums.... research project....

Hello, I am a new member here I own a registered 08/15 Maxim just waiting for approval so I can collect it and bring it home....
I have started a research project on Facebook at the "MG08 Study Group"....
I am trying to find out how many different manufactures there were of these drums....
Germany produced around 130,000 08/15 Maxim's if two drums each were issued they would need 260,000 drums add to that
spares/replacements it is possible up to 300,000 of these were produced....
this means there had to be quite a number of manufactures ...so far makers marks collected are:

E&G
CESW
FRC
SH

I would ask if you are a facebook member and own or have interest in the 08 or 08/15 Maxim please Join the
MG08 study group and add info you have on manufactures.....
also looking to identify reproduction drums... thanks
