This 2-man set operates the MG08 or Maschinegewehr 1908 which was originally the German Armys standard machine gun of WW1. After the end of The Great War the fledgling Polish Army inherited much surplus German weaponry including the MG08 and during the 1920s and 30s purchased even more. Although heavy and not easily moved around the battlefield these guns were strong, accurate and relatively simple to operate.
