This video explores the Huot Automatic Rifle, a fascinating World War I-era conversion of the Ross MkIII rifle developed by Canadian machinist Joseph Alphonse Huot. The conversion aimed to provide Canadian forces with an economical automatic weapon by adding a gas piston, a larger action cover, a 25-round drum magazine, and a Lewis-style cooling shroud. Despite initial positive testing with Canadian forces, the design was ultimately rejected by British testers near the end of the war, who found it insufficient to replace the Lewis Gun. The video details Huot's personal financial investment in the project and mentions that only five prototypes were made, with four currently known to exist.
