Despite such developments, the MG 08/15 remained by far the most common German machine gun deployed in World War I, [16] reaching a full allocation of six guns per company (72 guns per regiment) in 1918. By that time, there were four times as many MG 08/15 light machine guns than heavy MG 08 machine guns in each infantry regiment.
The gun's cost estimated in 1918 was 1,090 rubles; in comparison the cost of a Madsen light machine gun was around 1,730 rubles at that time. [17] In 1920, Lev Kamenev found the Fedorov Avtomat to be a promising design and authorized a limited production run.
