From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The MAS-54 was one of 40 rifles prototypes designed by MAS between 1952 and 1962 for the French Army, including a Bullpup variant. All variants were designed to take the 7.62 NATO round. The rifles were rejected due to the 7.62 NATO round being difficult to control in a bullpup rifle configuration and the round being difficult to control on full-auto in the non-bullpup rifle configurations.
