We know about the official use of the 1900 in WW1, wonder how many were used un-officially in conflict?
Sure got to reduce the number of FNs out there today
This self-loading rifle was seized by British forces during the Irish Republican rising in Dublin at Easter 1916. Due to a failed attempt to ship weapons from Germany, the Republican insurgents were very short of proper military equipment. As a consequence, sporting weapons, such as this - a Belgian-made version of the popular Remington Model 8 rifle - were pressed into use.
I think that's very interesting. Thank you for sharing.
