The MAS-35S is a semi-automatic pistol chambered for the 7.65mm Longue cartridge. A competitor in the 1935–1937 French military trials to select a new sidearm, it initially lost to the SACM 1935A, but production was ordered nonetheless to alleviate in shortages in pistols in the runup to the Second World War.
The MAS-35SM1 (more commonly marked as the French Modèle 1935 S M1) is a French semi-automatic pistol chambered in [[7.65×20mm Longue]] (7.65mm French Longue). It is a short-recoil, locked-breech sidearm developed alongside the other 1935-series French service pistols. The “M1” designation is best known for indicating a postwar safety modification applied to later-production 1935S pistols.

==HISTORY==
The 1935S pistol was created by French arsenal MAS and initially lost to the SACM 1935A. But due to wartime needs, MAS received additional contracts to produce the 1935S. Production was interrupted by German occupation in 1940 but resumed in 1944. Production shifted to other French arms producers in late 1944, totaling about 82,773 pistols by 1956. Its design influenced the MAC Mle 1950, which replaced both the 1935A and 1935S in French service.
The Modèle 1935S was designed at the state arsenal at Saint-Étienne (MAS) during the 1935–1937 French trials to adopt a new service pistol in 7.65mm Longue. Although the competing 1935A was selected first, production of the 1935S was also ordered to meet growing rearmament demands, with early deliveries beginning before World War II and then being interrupted by the 1940 occupation. Production resumed after liberation, and much of the postwar output was shifted to other manufacturers; when MAC and SAGEM took on large-scale manufacture, a revised safety system was introduced and pistols incorporating it were marked “M1.”

The 1935S M1 served through France’s immediate postwar period and into the era of colonial wars, including extensive use in the First Indochina War (1946–1954). In Vietnam, these pistols were carried by French Union forces and could later appear as captured weapons as arms changed hands during and after the conflict. The 1935-series pistols were ultimately replaced in French service by the [[MAC 1950]], but the 1935S M1 remains closely associated with post-1945 French production and Indochina-era service.

The MAS-35SM1 (more commonly marked as the French Modèle 1935 S M1) is a French semi-automatic pistol chambered in 7.65×20mm Longue (7.65mm French Longue). It is a short-recoil, locked-breech sidearm developed alongside the other 1935-series French service pistols. The “M1” designation is best known for indicating a postwar safety modification applied to later-production 1935S pistols.

HISTORY

The Modèle 1935S was designed at the state arsenal at Saint-Étienne (MAS) during the 1935–1937 French trials to adopt a new service pistol in 7.65mm Longue. Although the competing 1935A was selected first, production of the 1935S was also ordered to meet growing rearmament demands, with early deliveries beginning before World War II and then being interrupted by the 1940 occupation. Production resumed after liberation, and much of the postwar output was shifted to other manufacturers; when MAC and SAGEM took on large-scale manufacture, a revised safety system was introduced and pistols incorporating it were marked “M1.”

The 1935S M1 served through France’s immediate postwar period and into the era of colonial wars, including extensive use in the First Indochina War (1946–1954). In Vietnam, these pistols were carried by French Union forces and could later appear as captured weapons as arms changed hands during and after the conflict. The 1935-series pistols were ultimately replaced in French service by the MAC 1950, but the 1935S M1 remains closely associated with post-1945 French production and Indochina-era service.
