Wrong answer!  Actually, the US prototyped that weapon.  

OTOH, it was the Dutch Boers, expat Dutch, who upstaged and wreaked
havoc and nearly brought the Brits to their knees during the famous
Boer War in S. Africa.  They merely showed good sense by buying German
Mausers and outhinking the Limeys.  In the meantime, the Dutch don't
even have a good beer!!  Apparently, ya' gotta leave Dutch soil to
gain a pair.

Hey.... jes kidding.  I'm sure the Dutch are good for something
besides tulips.  ;)
