This article has been checked against the following criteria for B-class status:
There are two particular sentences I take issue with:
"The Fusil-mitrailleur Modèle 1924 M29 was the standard light machine gun of the French Army from 1925"
Technically incorrect, the 1924 model was standard from 1925 to ≈1929, whilst the 1924M29 would be standard from ≈1929 until its replacement. Perhaps it's nitpicky, any thoughts?
"the FM 1924 M29 soldiered on, practically without interruptions, for more than 50 years"
I find "practically without interruptions" to be a bit vague, what is practically? Was the weapon used throughout WWII by Free French and colonial forces too?
