The Ribeyrolles, Sutter and Chauchat (R.S.C.) Model 1917, also known as the Fusil Automatique (F.A.) Model 1917, was a French semi-automatic rifle produced during World War I. Although 85,000 rifles were produced during the war, it was criticized for being too heavy and too long, and it was accused of being too difficult to maintain in a trench environment. It also needed a special five-round clip. An improved version, the R.S.C. M1918, was shorter, and used the standard five-round clip of the Berthier rifle. This variant proved itself during the Rif War.
