MAS 36

The MAS 36 is a French bolt-action rifle featured in Post Scriptum.

Its production started in 1936, which led to the small amount of MAS 36 rifles that had been used in WWII.

Typical for most french rifles this weapon did not have a safety manual and later on in the war it's production was continued underground by baking the barrels in ovens hidden from the occupation.

It was supposed to be a stepping stone for the french forces, as they were exploring semi-automatic rifles, but took on the role of the official main weapon of the french forces for all of the war.

As the Germans were retreating they took many MAS 36 rifles with them and renamed them to the Gewehr 242(f).
