Springfield Armory Pattern Room/Museum trip

The picture labelled swiss seems to contain a Ljungman. Any thoughts on this. It took me a couple of goes to see it as it has a stock very similar to the K31. Did the cuckoo landers trial it?


Heres a super godzilla sized version of that pic if you want to see more details. Just click on my site there and on the bottom of every pic is a size option. Original is the biggest

Mr. Clark, in that image, the second rifle on the top shelf appears to have a metal tube going down the right hand side of the barrel, I could be mistaken, but it almost reminds me of the Charlton conversion of the No 1 Mk III....a bolt gun (straight pull in this case it appears) converted to semi-auto/full-auto using an add-on gas tube and op-rod?

I could be wrong...have a look though. It's the second from the left in the picture, with the reddish looking cocking piece...

Ya it does look a little wierd but I dont remember much about the area. He really seemed to focus on the US stuff I had to get him to stop the outside stuff. He walked right past the ROSS's and the Enfield snipers.
 
Thanks for posting here, I don't spend much time in the battle rifles forum, and wouldn't want to miss this! WOW!
