One of those looks an awful like the ISA's assault rifle from Killzone.

Adam Schindler

Making a Chauchat worse is basically Bubba's magnum opus.

Guido Schriewer

I hardly see how one could modify anything on this.

Will Sanders

I'm surprised you didn't talk about how that stock choice would both put the barrel inline with the shoulder AND get rid of the recoil spring cap beating your face up!

Oh so we can put a man on the moon but can’t bullpup a grotesque French LMG? WE DEMAND BETTER!

Bruce Brodnax

There's nothing wrong w/ the Chauchat that couldn't be fixed by (properly!) chambering it in a less ludicrous cartridge than the Balle D, making it short-recoil operated and improving the quality control But it was "good enough" and available in quantity when that was all that really mattered to the French. Too bad Gladiator let the U.S. down w/ the conversion to .30-'06, but hey, that should never have been undertaken anyway when the BAR was the better solution all along...

Not a lot of future...but plenty of past. Thanx Ian. Very cool.

Michael James

Quick, someone call the Elbonian Ministry of Defense!

Clifton Ballad

"Startled goat" is a great description of recoil impulse and I love it.

Erik

I think the best possible Chauchat accessory might be a couple of M-Lok hardpoints that would allow you to attach a BREN or FN Model D to one. XD
