Thanks for posting this!! I've seen crummy photos of this rifle before but this one is crystal clear. Where is this from? I thought the French used these in WWI? This 1907 looks like a post WWII rifle to me. Is there any additional data other than it's French?

Johnl, I forgot where I got that darn picture from...It's not a WW1 rifle for sure because of the late curved end to the charging handle. Somebodies recreation perhaps, there seem to be alot of gangster recreations floating around, why not a WW1 French recreation. Love to see one with French crossed flags on the receiver. I do own one of those French made 10 round mags from WW1. "351 Duperon" marked on the bottom.
