The Hovea M44, a Husqvarna-produced submachine gun tested by the Danish military, featured a unique folding stock and utilized Suomi 50-round quad-stack magazines.

Despite its functional action, design elements like the stock and grip led to its evolution into the Hovea M49, which incorporated features from the Carl Gustaf M45.

This video details the Suomi Noisemaker Training Magazine, a wooden and metal device used by the Finnish military to simulate automatic gunfire for the Suomi KP/-31 submachine gun.
