This video explores a unique .22LR conversion of the Berthier carbine, specifically modified by the Unique company for the French National Police (CRS) in 1954. These carbines, based on both 1892 and 1916 patterns, were intended for training and use by prison guards. The conversion involved fitting 5-round pistol magazines and ingeniously altering the firing system to accommodate rimfire ammunition by angling the new barrels, while also modifying the cocking piece and sights. The video highlights the historical significance and technical ingenuity of this specialized firearm.
