We really need to stop badmouthing all the French guns!
They put alot of time and money to guarantee those weapons could pass the "drop test."
(j/k)
The reason we issued the Chauchat was because we didn't have/have enough LMGs of our own for the war. It was better than nothing but not by much from most accounts. IIRC the reason we didn't use one of the British designs was because of some personal issues held by the head of the Ordinance Department. (However, I could be mistaken.)
