Some guns are still in the hands of full auto collectors in Canadaicon. I've attended the Wardlow Alberta shoot where an 08/15 was warmed up a bit. They're not just in museums...and they're also out in public, as in Digby Nove Scotia, in front of the Legion, in concrete. It states that the gun was put there in 1917 (I think) to replace the one that dissappeared from that spot in 1915...I have a pic of my kids in front of it.
