The SS made do with a lot of captured weapons (and obsolescent German and Czech weapons) in the first year or so of WW 2, because at that time they didn't have priority for issuance from Wehrmacht stocks. So you'll see pictures of early SS troops with Czech Ceska Zbrojovka vz. 30 machine guns, broomhandle Mausers, MP28's, even some MG 08s, and the Chauchat.
