Regarding the shoulder holsters: Check Anthony Vanderlinden's excellent book Holsters and Shoulder-Stocks of the World. The Finn Lahti L-35 holster/stock is shown on page 119. It is very much like the wooden Browning P35 holster stocks wherein the pistol fits inside under a hinged lid and a spare magazine is carried on the outside. They are exceedingly rare, with only 53 produced. There were some offered through Shotgun news several years ago that supposedly were Danish in origin, they were a plain, flat board stock and were possibly modern reproductions.
