Think long and hard about Sweden's involvement in World War II, and the calibres it used. Then the answer will become evident.

I also don't know which H&K's you've been looking at...

Hello,

this is a german developement of pre WW2. The gun was named
KNORR- BREMSE MG wasnt a success, but was used by the SS because out of the lack of weapons. Several where bought by Sweden befor the war
and I think the swedish start to produced the gun. There is absolutely no relation to H&K in any way, especiall it wouldt be a problem of time :-)
For mor info use Googel
