Sweden’s answer to more firepower M45B

[Remo Williams 1]

So when Sweden rivited the magwell on the Swedish K (B model), they wanted a solution for more firepower now that they could not use the Suomi 50 round coffin mag. (I can find no evidence of Swedish forces using the drum mag in the K). The simple answer was a 7mm wooden dowel placed 1” below the first hole on the magazine and secured with black electrical tape. (From Alabama Arms Swedish K video). The second pic is Swedish troops in the Congo during the 1960’s.
