This is the "name a random weapon in comment" request "winner", sort of.

MAS-49 model is hard to find, and God forbid I have to make a model of a gun I just heard of serval days ago…so the common one, that is.

The MAS-49 is a French semi-automatic rifle that replaced various bolt action rifles as the French service rifle that was produced in 1949. It was designed and manufactured by the government-owned MAS arms factory.
The French Army formal designation of the MAS-49 is Fusil semi-Automatique 7 mm 5 M. 49 ("semi-automatic rifle of 7.5mm model 1949").

The initial MAS-49 semi-automatic rifle was produced in limited quantities (20,600 units), whereas the shorter and lighter variant, the MAS-49/56, was mass-produced (275,240 units) and issued to all branches of the French military.

It holds 10 rounds and does good damage, one shot can usually stagger the enemy and 2~3 shots can kill.

Despite magazine reloading is an option, I just use the M1 Garand reload animation since technically that works too from serval videos I see before I made this.
Also, because I can’t be bothered after half a day fiddling with The Landkreuzer P. 1500 Monster model trying to make it not flip out.
