No
Even when dirty the run could fire quite a lot before any issues
It just needed to rest afterwarss
It was made for assaults not defense
Then how are you supposed to use it
The operation is the same, different position
A machine gun has to fire hundreds maybe thousands of rounds
The cauchat was made to fire arroind 200 rounds
And then rest
It was made for firing from the hip while on the move during an assault
Also the french had one of if not the best rifle in ww2
It doesn't matter how much you fire it if it jams after 5 rounds anyway
it jams after 200
It doesnt jam after 5 rounds
People have tested it
also i'm a k98 fanboy so I disagree mankn
And it workerd fine until the 200 rounds mark
@Pelkių monstras I sais one of
the mosin nagant is good for sniping aswell
The k98 is up there with it
Then I must have watched a bullshit vid
Mosin was kinda poop
But it was dirt cheap so
its accurate
**CARCANO**
The Italian got it right
German snipers would take the mosin nagant and used it for sniping
They made their gun tiny
Gimme a **carcano**
Making it a far better weapon to move arround
Give any gun
mankn where were you gone for that hour btw
I will take a handgonne
What hour
Small cartridge but still very good for medium distances, also making the same shortened version for both cavalry and infantry was smart
Requires less production effort
Lighter
*no one used calvalry anymore tho*
Yeah but in mid wars era a little, the carabines versions were used then for paras and engineers in ww2 @Mankn II
