South African here. These are super common to see in the hands of private security officers. I am not the most knowledgeable on the intricacies of the gun law here, just enough to have licensed my guns, but it is my understanding that these are easier to license as they technically fall under a pistol category and are therefore less restricted than a semi auto rifle. Essentially low level companies can purchase a ton of them, have a gun that is legally a pistol which handles like a rifle and so match most threats they would face. I think they look sexy in a sten gun sort of way, simple but extremely useful.
I owned an LDP in Rhodesia for a couple of years. The advertising said it was capable of firing 600 round a minute. I used it a lot on the range and never had any issues with it. Very nice size and it sat between the driver and passenger seat when travelling because there was always a threat of ambush even on the main roads. South Africa refused import when I immigrated there in 1980. I gave it to a friend who had been in the BSAP Special Branch and was then farming.
It was not the South Africans that called it a Rhuzi, it was the Rhodesian press. In fact there were a number of similar firearms manufactured in Rhodesia at the time and journalists lumped them all together as Rhuzis.
@@s.marcus3669 Hey there, I'm German and jewish, and there's something called "Schinui Schem" that allows us to change our names. That's kinda common in Germany, but I don't know how it works in the United states. I guess it depends on local laws if it's possible to change your name. In Germany it's very hard and expensive to change a name. You have to pay at least a couple thousand euros.

I have been asking for this video for a while now, so glad to see it. My grandmother had one of these during the bush war. It saved her and her 3 daughters lives and if it wasn't for one of these i would likely not have been born. You would be absolutely amazed by the stories she has to tell. I have been begging her to write book for years haha.
You have to admit, there's some interesting engineering takes in this to make it functional and to simply manufacture, specifically the bolt and feed ramp. That thing is neat as hell.
Lol you could have designated "burst magazines." Like load one mag with hot ammo, and then the burst mag has like 3 crap rounds, a good round, three crap rounds, a good round, etc.
I suppose it's not entirely necessary, but I feel like they missed a trick in using the latch for the stock to also lock the end cap for the receiver into place
manufacturing wise, this is a very clever design. Everything is a bent piece of sheet metal, a milled tube, or a milled piece of round stock. The lower is a piece of molded plastic. The barrel is about as simple as a barrel can be. I love all the work that went into making this easy to build.
I do remember the Rhodesia version of the Kommando so great to see more info on this innovative firearm. Recall the demilled part kits advertised in Shotgun News (USA) in the late 80s or early 90s came with smoothbore barrels.
So glad this channel has the support it has, really quality content and thoroughly investigated, giving one insight into not only how, but why the weapon was made. Epic 😍
My aunt had one and carried it when she went out at night with my uncle, the only doctor in his town willing to go out at night to see patients during the Rhodesian war....I did meet Alex du Plessis a few times in South Africa.

Found out minutes ago that the motorcycle gang chief in Mad Max Fury Road packed a stockless Kommando LDP. I first thought it was some kind of cut down Sten that had been augmented to look "post apocalyptic" but now know it's actually a very practical, real world firearm. The more you know 🌠
I'd love to see this on the range, and hear you impressions on accuracy. Practical accuracy, because that's what things like this are all about. (Meaning semi-auto carbines, or subguns converted to semi-auto) Compared to a Pistol, this has a shoulder, and offhand contact point, so you can hold it steadier, and get a better sight picture. Also better site distance, though these crude sights probably don't let you really take advantage of that. You can't really adjust the zero on a hole drilled through a sheet metal bracket.
In theory, the whole bolt assembly can be done on a lathe, all the vertical machine operations can be done using the cross slide and an angle bracket, where the cutting implement is held in the chuck. Those are simple enough to not miss the lack of a fully operational slide as in a vertical mill.
Really slick construction with the two-piece bolt and receiver-mounted feed ramp. And in addition to easing disassembly, the semi-captive recoil spring is there because the ejector rod is off-center on the plug, which obviously wouldn't work with a thread-in piece. I bet that if there was a full-auto version, any police, security or even military would've been very happy with them.
Early PDW! Nice! It seems really simple to maintain. Though the trigger and sear system seems like it could be simplified to make it more reliable and cheaper.

Very slick bolt design! It simplified production, thus lowering time and cost, and yet did nothing to functionality. Oh, and that rotating feed ramp? Awesome! 👌
I would love to see what a modern version would look like ...( Both 9mm and .22 - and full auto ) ...better sights , 12 inch barrel , sliding stock ... Easy to manufacture and maintain ..😌👌
Pine Cone guessing it’s mostly because Ian knows the tech and engineering and history and stays on topic (too many of the firearms shows get derailed into political posturing or talking about how manly it makes them feel or other nonsense).
Some of it is probably reliability. Two parts that can move about (even a little) means a bit more wear than one part that does the same. That being said for cheaper guns it makes sense
seems like a sensible gun. I could also see this being useful with a small scope and a longer barrel, for light work against rodents and the like or for plinking cans and targets.
Kommando in South African military were the reserve/countryside militia. Kommando being the Boer's republics typical Citizen army units. So it retained original meaning there, where in the rest of world , thank to their daring feats, became an alternate name for Incursors/Assault troops.
I love that the designer used an "epoxy putty" to make the original. I've used putty epoxies in the past to make some really clever things but never a complete firearm receiver.
No sé quién habrá copiado al otro, pero en Cuba, utilizamos una metralleta la SA vz modelo 25 de fabricación checoslovaca, que es casi exacta a está, había dos versiones una como la que muestra, de culatín plegable metálico y otra con culatin de madera. Sobre todo era para artilleros y tanquistas. De calibre 9mm y con depósitos de 20 y 30 proyectiles. La mira posterior era para disparar a 30 y 50 metros. Su alcance bastante limitado. En el guarda mano anterior tenía un dispositivo para ayudar a cargar los depósitos de proyectiles más rápido.
Back in the 80s, I owned one of these in Canada. There was not that many of them, imported by OGT out of Metachewan Ontario. Sold it after a few yrs. The LDP was an interesting gun fore sure.
I have to say, that little retaining plate at the back of the receiver, is pretty smart. Makes disassembly much easier and you're not looking around for that cap piece. I wonder if it adds to the strength of the piece, with the locking pin, spring loaded nub, whatever you want to call it. I have to wonder how it shoots, that doesn't seem to be much travel. Well, it's enough.
BOUGHT ONE IN CHIPINGA IN 1978, AT THE LOCAL LIQUOR STORE OF COURSE. VERY INEXPENSIVE. PAID CASH, THEN HAD TO WALK TO THE DISTRICT COMMISSIONER'S OFFICE DOWN THE STREET AND PAY RH4$ FOR A TAX STAMP, THEN BACK TO THE BOTTLE SHOP TO PICK UP THE GAT, 200 ROUNDS OF 9MM, AND A CRATE OF CASTLE BEERS.
