Hi,
By 1940 the French army had the MAS36 rifle in it's inventory, however, not enough of these weapons were available to equip all units and large numbers of Lebel and Berthier rifles/carbines were still in use. Any chance of a manufacturer making the above in 1/35?
TIA,
Regards,

As far as French ww2 rifles go I would be happy with at least the correct MAS36 rifles. All the ones I have ever seen have post ww2 features

Masterclub makes the Lebel rifles, but I don't know who good they are.

Here's a

I don't have this set but if they are up to the standard of Masterclub's other weapons they'll be terrific
