I find it strange that sources say that the French called it a submachine gun, especially since all the sources are in English and none in French. A comment on the Wikipedia comment page for the weapon said that the Frenched called it pistolet mitrailleur not because it used pistol rounds, but because it had a pistol grip but no butt. Is there any source that confirms that? --[[User:Wuzh|Wuzh]] ([[User talk:Wuzh|talk]]) 02:20, 24 April 2018 (EDT) | I find it strange that sources say that the French called it a submachine gun, especially since all the sources are in English and none in French.

Submachine Gun?
I find it strange that sources say that the French called it a submachine gun, especially since all the sources are in English and none in French. A comment on the Wikipedia comment page for the weapon said that the Frenched called it pistolet mitrailleur not because it used pistol rounds, but because it had a pistol grip but no butt. Is there any source that confirms that? --Wuzh (talk) 02:20, 24 April 2018 (EDT)

Relation to R.S.C M1917
Is this thing basically a shortened R.S.C. Mle 1917? --JackalUnderscore (talk) 14:57, 31 July 2021 (EDT)
