Explore one of the most unusual and complex machine guns of the First World War – the French St. Étienne Mle 1907.
Originally designed at the Manufacture d'Armes de Saint-Étienne, this weapon used a unique gas-driven mechanism that made it both fascinating and notoriously difficult to maintain in combat.
In this video, we demonstrate the full assembly, internal function, and operation of the St. Etienne 1907 — recreated in detail from real references and historical manuals.
Available in World of Guns: Gun Disassembly — an interactive 3D simulator that allows you to explore hundreds of real firearms, from vintage classics to modern designs.
