A couple of weekends ago, I took a rifle to the show with the intent to sell it and buy some parts for a couple of AR builds. I wound up trading it and got this in return:
OK, it's a French SACM Mle 1935A in .32 French Long. Yup, a roll yer own proposition and probably make your own brass unless I can find some. No, it's not an AR but I've been on the trail of one of these for 6-8 years now and the opportunity, funds and interest all hit at the same time.
One thing I do need help with. Can anyone ID this letter?
If these walls could talk, I'd listen to the floor.

My guess is dropped three times and the last two were when it was refinished...
I'm 99% it is post-war production and there's a good chance it saw time in Indo-China or Africa. Or it may have just sat in an armory in Podunk, France.

A very, very few 35's are still around. Friend in the Legion, now out, had some MAB's and G1's (Beretta 92) issued in Afghanistan, and they still had a few old 35's around on the books.
