MG 08 gunner pouch?

[me6_130]

Hello,

This is not my area, as I usually deal with WWII MG34, but I have seen this pouch and was wondering if it's an MG08 pouch. Thanks for any help.

Hello,

It's a pouch for MG 08, but this one is from WWII.

Mercí David,

So it be would an MG08/15, correct? I found some pics, thanks. Back to WWII Forum.

Hello,

During WWI it was only used with heavy machine gun MG 08, and during WWII it was also used with the MG 08/15.

Just an interesting side-note. In the photo below of the WWII tripod-mounted MG, this was obviously taken during training as what appears to be a shredder is mounted on the front of the barrel/water jacket.
