The French Modele 1937 50mm light mortar, developed from a 1924 concept, offered a portable solution for intermediate firepower. Despite its lightweight design (3.6kg) and innovative folding mechanism, adoption was delayed, with limited production before WWII. Its range is adjustable from 80m to 460m via a unique vent hole collar, and it fires a 0.4kg shell using a lever-actuated firing pin. Post-war, its projectiles were adapted for rifle grenades.
