The French RSC 1917 was a significant early semi-automatic rifle produced during WWI, with approximately 86,000 units made. It utilized a long-stroke gas piston system and a rotating bolt, predating the M1 Garand by two decades. Despite its advanced design for the era, it suffered from an open bolt track prone to debris ingress, a flaw partially addressed in the 1918 model. Original clips are rare due to a lack of standardization with other French rifle clips.
