Product Description
/!\ Scale disclamer /!\ : The M1892 is too small in 1/18 scale so I made it only in 1/16 scale
The Model 1892 revolver (also known as the "Lebel revolver" and the "St. Etienne 8mm") is a French service revolver produced by Manufacture d'Arme de Saint-Etienne as a replacement for the MAS 1873 revolver. It was the standard issue sidearm for officers in the French military during the WWI.
A mechanically tight and very well finished handgun, the Modèle 1892 fires 8mm rounds with a striking power equivalent to that of a .32ACP round. It also features a smaller calibre than many other military revolvers of that time period, including the Welbley revolver and its predecessor, the Mle 1873
Though it was originally designed to serve as a commissioned officer's personal sidearm, over 350,000 Modèle 1892 revolvers had been manufactured between 1892 and 1924 . It was issued in the French Army, Navy and Police, amongst others. It is commonly, but mistakenly, called a "Lebel revolver" after the name of Colonel Nicolas Lebel, although there is no evidence whatsoever that Lebel had any involvement in the creation of the gun or its ammunition.NCO (Non-commissioned officer) continued to carry the older Mle 1873 revolver, but were also frequently issued .32 ACP automatic pistols (the Ruby pistol) during World War I. The Mle 1892 was later officially replaced by semi-automatic pistol in 1935 but many saw service during World War II and were brought to the United States as souvenirs
