The Våpensmia NM-149S is a Norwegian sniper rifle conversion based on German Kar 98k receivers, chambered in 7.62 NATO. It features a bent bolt handle, a 5-round detachable magazine, and a Schmidt & Bender 6x42 scope. The NM-149 F1 variant includes a heavy barrel and G3-style flash hider, with a laminate stock and two-stage trigger.
The Landstad 1900 was a unique, single-prototype semiautomatic revolver designed for Norwegian military trials. It featured a detachable magazine and a two-chamber cylinder, aiming to combine revolver safety with semi-auto firepower. Despite its innovative design, it failed trials due to mechanical failures, including a sheared bolt, and feeding issues, leading to the adoption of the Kongsberg Model 1914.

The pistol is chambered in 7.63mm Mauser, features a 16-round clip-fed magazine in the grip, interrupted thread locking, and a rotating barrel short recoil action. The presenter notes its surprisingly light weight and discusses its problematic performance during informal testing, highlighting four malfunctions in 16 rounds. The video touches on Bjorgum's career as a gun designer for the Norwegian military, his later work on a self-loading rifle, and his eventual return to painting. It's a detailed look at a lesser-known historical firearm prototype.
