I don't have a lot of background on this rifle, but thought it interesting enough to keep. So, time to share a little:
Born in Germany as an 11mm blackpowder cartridge rifle.
It then moved to France, where it got a make-over into a 6,5mm caliber smokeless powder rifle.
Round design courtesy of the French Navy and a M. Daudeteau. Finest French bayonet adaptor included! 'Verr-ah Nyiz-ah'
Then off to Uruguay, for a short working stint of but a few years.
Years and years of quiet, and then off to the "States" for retirement.
It's time for a little exercise, and a bit of the spotlight.
So, here's, ummm, well, I don't know rightly what it's proper name is...!!!
Who can fill us in on historical details? Or shooting reports? Reloading?
