Description

10/7/21 - This is a beautiful example of a French military rifle known as the Model 1949-56 and produced by MAS, and includes a large array of additional accessories. The MAS 1949-56 is a reliable, accurate, easy to maintain semi-automatic rifle with a detachable 10-round magazine and a side rail designed to allow for attachable rifle scopes. The MAS 49-56 is the 1956 adaptation of the MAS-49, which was adopted as standard issue for the French army in 1949. The 49/56 improved upon the original model based on its usage in Algeria, Indochina, and the Suez Crisis. The 49/56 was made shorter and lighter, a knife bayonet was added, and the built in grenade launcher was altered to combine a compensator with a rifle grenade launcher that fired 22mm rifle grenades. The MAS-49/56 saw significantly more production than the original MAS-49 (275,240 versus 20,600) and saw action in French conflicts around the world until it was replaced by the FAMAS in 1979. This particular rifle has a minty receiver and is chambered for 7.5mm. Original sling is present and stock is in excellent condition with no major flaws. There is a small import mark on the left side of the receiver. Excellent bore. The listing includes the sniper scope with mount, as well as the canvas cover. It also comes with a night sight device muzzle attachment, bayonet, four spare magazines, original manuals, the scope case and more. Just a fantastic grouping overall that you likely won't upgrade any time soon.
