Initially intended for the artillery, the model 1892 carbine would later be distributed to the infantry, including sappers, machine-gunners, alpine chasseurs and the engineers.
Basic stats:
*There were several variants of the model 1892 carbine, owing to the multiple modifications it underwent. The first was in 1898 with the adoption of the 'D bullet' which necessitated a change in the rear sight. In 1902 the half-cock safety trigger was suppressed; in 1909 a recoil tenon under the bolt-box was added; and in 1913 a quillon (bayonet catcher) is added to the embouchoir (top barrel ring). Additional modifications would take place in the inter-war years, including the suppression of the rifle cleaning rod and a reinforced firing chamber. The variant pictured above is a model 1892/32, explaining the absence of the cleaning rod.
