This video explores the MAS-36 LG48, a bolt-action rifle adapted for grenade launching. Originally intended as a secondary rifle, the MAS-36 saw significant frontline combat, necessitating grenade launching capabilities for frontline infantry. The LG48, adopted in 1948, utilized a modified version of the Mle 1937 mortar projectile fitted with a new tail assembly to launch over the MAS-36 muzzle. These rifles featured a new nosecap with a grenade sight and an adjustable range sleeve. LG48 rifles were manufactured new or as conversion kits and lacked specific identification markings. Declared obsolete in 1968 with the adoption of NATO-standard rifle grenades, they were retrofitted to standard MAS-36 configuration. Surviving examples, like the one featured, are often from foreign military aid recipients not subject to the retrofitting order, with this particular example imported from Lebanon.
