The 276 Pedersen used a toggle. An aquaintance has one locally. Neat rifle. I found a box of ammo at a gunshow one day, bought it and gave it to him. I'd like to make some shooter ammo for it and give it a run of 20 or so rounds.

Adolf Furrer, engineer and director of the Waffenfabrik Bern 1921-1940, used the toggle system for a lot of different guns, from SMG to 34mm AAA. It seems that it was some kind of "one fits all"-system for him...
