This video explores Finland's L41 Sampo, a prototype gas-operated GPMG developed in the 1930s to replace the Maxim. Facing funding issues and wartime priorities, the L41 saw limited field testing during the Continuation War but never reached full production. The program was eventually stalled by the prospect of producing MG42 receivers in 7.62x54R. The L41 is described as a robust hybrid design, with only seven known to survive.
