MG08/15 Bipods
There are 3 known patterns of issue bipod for the Light Machine Gun. I am looking for 2 types for 2 guns but here is a good image of a well made defensive system and the LMG crew. A normal 08/15 det should consist of 9 soldiers.

Re: MG 08/15
nice post. did you know that null acht funfzehn (0815)is a German saying for "nothing special, ordinary"? this was due to the MGs widespread use in the war.
