That is the most awkward holster-stock I have ever seen. "The enemy appears to be in range, let me take a minute or so to open this safety deposit box, convince my pistol to get out of it, close it up, open this wingnut, finagle my pistol into this loop, wingnut the loop closed, get it to my shoulder and -" ~shot~
I just saw a company that sells parts kits of 'buy back guns' with one of these in .45acp. They disassemble them, destroy the frame and sell the parts.
Thank you, Ian, for bringing these truly forgotten weapons to light. I don't miss any of his videos and from time to time I review the older ones. Thank you again. Greetings from Brazil.
Collector to friend; "Just got some .32 ACP.W." "Wow, what's the W for, Wild or Wonder, for extreme power bullets, sounds amazing." "No, no you've got the wrong end of the stick there, literally, the W stands for wood. It fires a wooden core bullet, because it can't handle decent ammo."
Honestly I wouldn't mind if people used a big, light and slow projectile like that. Lower chance of penetration you know, more stopping power and less lethal potential..
Wooden-cored bullets, now I know why the Danes have no Vampires!! Seriously though, that is one heck of a collection of esoteric and extremely rare pistols ... thanks to the owner, and Ian, for sharing them with us - very much appreciated, sir.
I'm living near Denmark and know a thing or two about the danish Language. It is hard to pronounce, but I think Ian's take is harder to pronounce than what it probably is: just "Shobo" with both "o" 's pronounced like the o in "word".
I'm just enjoying the fact that Ian was able to show that highly embellished gun again. I bet that collector he visited to make this video is passionate about his Schouboe pistols based solely on the number they have. Very impressive collection and nice to see one of those rare niche guns being collected. Thanks for sharing Ian.
Love to see guns related to my country Uruguay!! I have seen the previous video way back, this is a cool bonus. President Claudio Williman was in ofice between 1906 and 1911 so its posible both guns were presented to him in diferent moments of his presidency. Knowing myself a litlle of history and a bit more of Uruguayan diplomacy I realy doubt that anyone else but the president could wet such gift. In Uruguay we would be proud to have such pistols to be properly exibit but as this many of other important artifacts have gone to the international market. Ian is in some form making posible to everyone to see things that maybe would be never be seen outside private colections. Thank you.
That has got to be the most bizarre combination of over-engineering and backyard crude I have ever seen in my life. That front bracket on the holster stock is really nicely done. I mean that whole thing was machined out of a giant block or forging. Just look at all those little zigzags and curves that have been machined into the bracket and how the thickness varies over it's length. Then, apparently, the engineering budget ran out, and somebody drew the plans for the rest of the stock on the back of a grocery bag with a crayon. That thing looks like it was hacked out with a handsaw and tin snips. The retaining mechanism for the door looks like it was made by a 10 year old who didn't have access to anything other than scrap metal and repurposed tools.
Paul Ste. Marie As a Dane, I can reliably inform you that we still use that exact same combination of engineering principles to this day, in most thing we do. It works just fine, except for when it doesn’t. ;)
I've been waiting for Ian to take a look ant these for years, didn't realise they made so few. The little .32 is my favourite. I'd love to see some modern analysis of the ballistics of the .45 round though I guess that's pretty unlikely.
Given what I've seen with the liberty civil defense rounds when intentionally clogged with super glue (78gr instead of these 60gr wood bullets) they would honestly perform almost identically to ordinary 45 acp ball in an unobstructed target. Notable differences are the vast decrease in velocity (and thus penetration in a non-performing bullet) and difficulty with soft barrier penetration. An ordinary shooting not involving concealment or cover would probably not give any indication of different performance between 45 ball and 45 wood core. Recoil would be more abrupt but overall less. Wounds would appear as a sub-0.45" wound, likely resembling a stab wound with a piece of 0.45" round stock sharpened in a pencil line profile.
Two observations concerning the shoulder stock: The major complaint of the then existing designs from Mauser & DWM, were fragility & stability. It seems that the Danes have addressed both these points in that the loop clasp insures a repeatable secure attachment without the problem of the backstrap slot or stock mount wear causing a wobbly connection over time. Second, there appears to be a lot more wood in the Stock/holster in this configuration, without the hinged door at the back, as with most other designs. This one looks like it would hold up to more abuse. That all being said, it must weigh a TON.
"scow-bo" - still not physically pronouncable by an american but closer to the 'truth'......Incidently, Schouboe (or in modern spelling "Skovbo" literally means "Forest-dweller"
I guessed at the pronunciation and I wasn't far off. I served in Denmark with the NATO MND (C) for about a year, in Ringstead and Copenhagen (apologies for the spelling, it's been 27 years). I loved it there to be honest, the whole experience.
I read somewhere that Dansk Rekylriffel Syndikat used this pistol as an apprenticeship exam (Svendeprøve) for gunsmiths in training, which is one of the reason there exsist so many varients. But looking for the quote i could not find it :( Has anyone else read/heard that?
@@OldJenso Well, yes. I talked to a man that was selling a Scouboe pistol at weaponsexhibision in Rødovre hallen. He was himself a gunsmith from Riffelsyndikatet (Madsen) in the 1950´s-60´s. While talking about the pistol he told me that it was made for an exam and they used to do that in the period it was made. I didn´t buy it though -it stod at 60000kr = 9000us dollar :(

16:14-16:25 : This door design was not made by a gunsmith. Rather, it was made by an extremely annoyed house wife who was tired of her husband not locking the door on the way out of the house when he went to work and was like, "Oh, you're not gonna remember to lock the door? Well, ya gonna rember for ya damn gun!".
When you picked up the first pistol, the 1903 it looked so similar to the little guns they used in Gerry and Sylvia Anderson's TV series Captain Scarlet and the Mysterons, and you're handling looked like the shots they did of real hands in place of the marionettes when they showed something being manipulated in close-up.
With crazy esoteric stuff like this, how do these guns even survive to this day? How did enough examples of these weird one off prototype even exist anymore?
You at least got the hard "ch" sound right but yeah, it's hard to pronounce, probably a lot of younger people here who wouldn't be familiar with this variation of spelling of this name. Modern spelling would be "Skovbo", pronounced exactly the same, "skuvv-boh" is the best way i can render it. Infinite thumbs up for pronouncings Madsen properly unlike every other anglophone in the world, it's especially weird when people talk about Mads Mikkelsen and call him "Mats".
This is the first Forgotten Weapons video where the absurdity in design actually had me laughing by the end. That stock/holster design -- wow. Especially strange and definitely contributing to the comedy is how these guns went through such a *frequent* series of seemingly illogical iterations.
Dansk Rekylriffel Syndikat was the company name of the Madsen guns manufacturer, and was called Compagnie Madsen A/S before the name was changed to Dansk Rekylriffel Syndikat as far as I'm aware. The name changed in 1936 to Dansk Industri Syndikat A/S, and produced weapons for the nazis during WWII. The company still exists, now called DISA, but they have stopped producing weapons a long time ago and now produces high-tech foundry machinery. A somewhat confused article, all in Danish, about it: www.dengang.dk/artikler/2378
Nelson Prue hehe, well. We Danes might have been geniuses with regards to that, but the rest of the design I think was made after 10 pints of beer consumption.. ^^
The 1903 kind of reminds me of the pistol in the Bond film “Man with the Golden Gun”. Kind of, sort of at first glance without looking up the actual gun from the movie.
Most comments are trying to be funny, but I like to scroll down to see if someone has one in their attic, safe or sock drawer! It amazes me what has wound up in America sometimes!
so using a combination of @NoRemorse Woodworking's comment, google translate, some videos of Danes talking in Danish and English, and my knowledge of the international phonetic alphabet, I know how to pronounce Schouboe Schouboe is now generally spelled "Skovbo" and follows at least slightly more phonetic pronunciation in that spelling. from audio I can find of danes talking, which gives me a rough idea of what consonants sound like, the phonetic pronnunciation should be: skxo̞ʋo If you're curious on how to pronounce that, the way I would write it in a syllabicated way would be "Skowv-boh" assuming you speak relatively close to Standard American Dialect. This is not entirely correct because the K isn't a hard k, it's a softer k, the technical term is a non sibilant affricative. The German soft "H" is another example of the same type of non sibilant affricative, just further back in the mouth. There's not really an analogous sound in English, at least not Standard American Dialect.

Dansk Rekylriffel Syndikat was the company name of the Madsen guns manufacturer, and was called Compagnie Madsen A/S before the name was changed to Dansk Rekylriffel Syndikat as far as I'm aware. The name changed in 1936 to Dansk Industri Syndikat A/S, and produced weapons for the nazis during WWII. The company still exists, now called DISA, but they have stopped producing weapons a long time ago and now produces high-tech foundry machinery.
A somewhat confused article, all in Danish, about it:

I like the Danish Quickdraw holster...
Very interesting firearms !!!!!!!!! Thanks for showing them, Gun Jesus !!!!!!!!!!!!!
Wow... Ruger mk4 disassembly.. like 100+ years before. Sooooooo innovative Ruger lol.
Nelson Prue hehe, well. We Danes might have been geniuses with regards to that, but the rest of the design I think was made after 10 pints of beer consumption.. ^^
The second Uruguayan piston may have been a simplified version that incorporated suggested changes and would be simpler to manufacture.
That first gun will be appearing in the next star wars
Thank you , Ian .
The 1903 kind of reminds me of the pistol in the Bond film “Man with the Golden Gun”. Kind of, sort of at first glance without looking up the actual gun from the movie.
Surprised you didn’t point out it’s a left hand holster!
Me: Looks odd a bit. I wonder if there is anything special about them
Ian: Wooden core bullets
Me: OK!
Most comments are trying to be funny, but I like to scroll down to see if someone has one in their attic, safe or sock drawer! It amazes me what has wound up in America sometimes!
14:15 there is enough space in the stock to put a 125ml juice box inside, so you can drink when you aim XD
I'm danish and I will give him a B for effort, and I really agree on him not physically pronounceable...
The golden pistols are something that I'd expect to see in BioShock 5 or something.
so using a combination of @NoRemorse Woodworking's comment, google translate, some videos of Danes talking in Danish and English, and my knowledge of the international phonetic alphabet, I know how to pronounce Schouboe
Schouboe is now generally spelled "Skovbo" and follows at least slightly more phonetic pronunciation in that spelling.
from audio I can find of danes talking, which gives me a rough idea of what consonants sound like, the phonetic pronnunciation should be:
skxo̞ʋo
If you're curious on how to pronounce that, the way I would write it in a syllabicated way would be "Skowv-boh" assuming you speak relatively close to Standard American Dialect. This is not entirely correct because the K isn't a hard k, it's a softer k, the technical term is a non sibilant affricative. The German soft "H" is another example of the same type of non sibilant affricative, just further back in the mouth. There's not really an analogous sound in English, at least not Standard American Dialect.
The wooden cartridge comes from a need to eliminate rogue vampires in the region.
