Someone please fund my buying needs. And no the French did not surrender during WWI, that' was WWII Anyway, during WWI, the Lebel model 1886/93 was the primary weapon used during the war. I should mention that someone did ask me to do the equipment used during the Battle of Verdun, which if I remember correctly, 1.2 million people were killed in total. I was planning on doing that, but I decided to do the whole war with each side and their equipment respectively. Today is my day off from school and work so this is why I'm doing this comp... that and I love you all. Firing the 8×50mmR Lebel round, the weight of the rifle is 9.7 lb and could hold 8 rounds. Fun trivia, the Lebel was the first rifle to use smokeless powder. At the beginning of the war, French infantry uniforms at the break of the war in 1914 reflects the mentality of 'attaque à outrance' or all-out attack, this was more suited during the battles of the 19th century.

Lightweight and a favorite by French and American forces. The Fusil automatique modèle 1917 fired a 8×50mmR Lebel and was used scarcely by the end of the war. A favorite of the French military, the Hotchkiss m1914 fired 8×50R Lebel round. With a weight of 53 pounds, this MG had a rate of fire of 600 rounds per minute. The soldiers carried the mask in its round oblong metal container with an across-body strap. Instructions for use could be found on the inside of the lid. This mask had the filter connected to the mask.
