I don’t have any sources to say definitively where they were issued other than a quick Wikipedia search. Just going off of my own hunches given the German military situation with industry and production both early in the war and by late 1944 onwards. LP08’s were used as a PDW of sorts. Even by 1918 with the advent of the Bergmann MP-18, they were an obsolete weapon. Likely issued to reservists and rear line groups.
