	~~<hr>~~		'''MAS-36/51''' is a French bolt-action rifle and rifle-grenade-launcher variant of the MAS-36, chambered for the 7.5×54mm French cartridge. It retains the five-round internal magazine loaded by stripper clips, but adds a permanently fitted grenade-launching muzzle and folding grenade sights. It is best known for providing a rugged, simple service rifle with integral rifle-grenade capability during France’s postwar conflicts.

			==HISTORY==
			The MAS-36/51 was introduced in 1951 as an updated MAS-36 configuration adapted for launching rifle grenades, typically by fitting a dedicated grenade-launching muzzle device and associated sights while keeping the underlying MAS-36 action and manual of arms. The variant is often described as the “LG51” (lance-grenades 1951) pattern, reflecting its postwar role of extending the MAS-36 family’s utility at a time when France was also fielding semi-automatic MAS-49 series rifles.

	~~<gallery mode="packed" heights="400px">~~		In Vietnam-era context, MAS-36 family rifles were widely used by French forces during the First Indochina War, and grenade-launching configurations provided infantry units a compact way to deliver explosive projectiles without separate launchers. Captured French small arms also circulated in Vietnamese stocks, meaning MAS-36-pattern rifles could persist in secondary roles even as more modern semi-automatic and assault rifles became common.
