Eriksen M/25

 * ... that although only a single example of the Eriksen M/25 machine gun was built, it saw service in the 1940 Norwegian Campaign? Source: "Ingenting tyder på at det fantes mer enn et eksemplar av de tre våpnene." (about there being only one of each of the guns designed by the designer of the Eriksen M/25) "Sersjant Håkon Lunde fikk M/25 utlevert på Raufoss den 14. april 1940. Lunde deltok i felttoget i nesten to uker..." (about Sergeant Håkon Lunde being issued the M/25 and then serving in the Norwegian Campaign) (Antonsen 2014, p. 339.)

 * Symbol voting keep.svg New, long & neutral enough. Sources all offline & foreign lang. QPQ done. All hooks seem ok, the first one seems best really. I note the article says it was "probably" the only example ever made. Personally I don't think this needs adding, but others might disagree. GTG as far as I'm concerned.
