Uhm, Ian? This gun was never designed for domestic use. Denmark was looking into becoming a weapons exporter (an idea we've since given up on) and Elbonia just had really strange requirements. They figured that it's easier to shoot a pistol lying down, so they wanted the handle swept back. And they wanted to be able to, at least partially, produce ammo locally, so they demanded wooden bullets with alu jackets because they had plenty of furniture and empty beer cans. It still remains unclear whatever that they wanted to lie down shooting is related to the fact that all their beer cans were empty.

@maronitoni5934 Elbonia is a fictional country that Ian uses tongue-in-cheek when looking at modified weapons because youtube has decided that weapons modification is a big no-no. So Ian pretends that it was the Elbonian army who had wildly esoteric demands that ultimately lead nowhere. Just search youtube for "Elbonia" or "Elbonian" to see the quite humorous episodes this has spawned.
