1. M1886 R93 Lebel

2. M1907/15 Mannlicher Berthier

3. M1936 MAS

I have only fired the last one using .32ACP in a catridge adapter. Accuracy only so so but it did let me get the feel of it. Plus I have several

nice examples of "Rosalie" for the 1st two.

Patrick,

Can you confirm that "Roselie's Breakfast" or "Roselie's Breakfast Time"*(Le petit dejuner de Rosalie?) was a slang term for a dawn attack with the bayonet.?
