Just popped up on youtube and thought some of you may find it interesting. Not too many videos on the Madsen-Ljungman Rifle.

 
Interesting, some of the early literature mentions that the gas tube of the Danish Madsen-Ljungman was wrapped around the barrel.

he Madsen factory in Denmark also apparently made the rifle, but in extremely limited quantities.
The Danish version did not use a regular straight gas tube, but rather conducted the gas around the
barrel, in a tube. This was supposed to cool it, and lessen the recoil, by using less energetic gas to
cycle the action. Apparently Madsen was hoping to get foreign orders, which were not forthcoming.
