Much maligned today, the CSRG (Chauchat) machine rifle was in fact the most manufactured automatic weapon of World War I, outnumbering every other machinegun made by the Allies and the Central Powers. It was the world's first successful squad automatic - the ancestor of the modern assault rifle. One can recognize for the first time together all the classic attributes: the pistol grip, the in-line stock, the large-capacity magazine, the fire selector, and the bipod. French and AEF CSRG Gunners formed the nucleus of the world's first Infantry machinegun-killer teams during World War I, using the Chauchat to such telling effect that many were awarded the highest decorations their countries could bestow. A well-researched, historical classic. The Book is in Very Fine As New condition. The Dust Jacket is in Fine condition with only the very lightest use. A wonderful copy at a reasonable price.…
