In addition to the M/45 SMG didn't the Swedish contingent in the Congo use  AG m/42B rifles as their standard weapon? I know I have seen photos of them in service with Swedish UN peacekeepers there.


This group of Swedish soldiers in the Congo are on mine-clearing duty, and they are armed with m/45B submachine guns and Ljungman AG m/42B rifles.
