This review details the rare Mle 1866 Chassepot rifle specifically modified for French African Cavalry. Key differences from the standard infantry model include a reinforced stock, altered sling swivels for horseback carry, and a unique 'O' serial number prefix. While 12,000 were produced, they were quickly replaced by the 1870 carbine and often later converted.
