The Finnish LS-26/31 represents a rare drum-fed variant of the Lahti-Saloranta M/26 LMG, developed by VKT for export. While typically using 20-round box magazines, these experimental models featured a 75-round drum and were chambered in various calibers, including 8mm Mauser for a large Chinese order. Despite a significant Chinese contract, only a fraction were delivered, with remaining units seeing limited Finnish Army service during the Winter War, often converted back to box magazine use.
