A demonstration by "Norsk våpenhistoriske selskap" ( Norwegian Arms & Armour Society ) during the annual norwegian national rifle shooting championship at Elverum 2010
Demonstrating weapons used by norwegian armed forces from 1894 to 1945.
The weapons where the ones used by the Norwegian Resistance forces and Company Linge that was stationed in Britain.
No Madsen?
Also, wasnt the Hotchkiss pretty much fased out for the Colt MG in 1940?

Pretty much, it was pretty outdated, but it was used on permanent defences i'm told.. Such as Oscarborg.
Sorry, no Madsen, they had them and a colt in their stand but didn't demonstrate it.
