Madsen
LMG

12/17/21 – This is a nice example of a very cool Madsen LMG. The receiver on this one has been blocked and permanently welded. Therefore, it is not a functioning firearm and cannot be converted to be a functioning firearm. However, the charging handle works, the magazine comes in and out, and the trigger works. There is an obvious weld mark on the left side of the outer receiver. The gun comes with an original magazine case and 5 original magazines. Very cool display piece! The Madsen is a light machine gun that Julius A. Rasmussen and Theodor Schouboe designed and proposed for adoption by Colonel Vilhelm Herman Oluf Madsen, the Danish Minister of War, and that the Royal Danish Army adopted in 1902. It was the world’s first true light machine gun produced in quantity and Madsen was able to sell it in 12 calibres to over 34 countries. The gun saw extensive combat usage for over 100 years, with continued use in limited quantities worldwide into the 2010s.[3][4] The Madsen was produced by Compagnie Madsen A/S. There is a piece of twine shown in the photos that was just being used to hold the bipod legs together.
