		Mle 1892 asetta usein kutsutaan nimellä "Lebel", vaikkakin on hyvin epätodennäköistä että Nicolas Lebelillä oli aseen kanssa mitään tekemistä.
		Mle 1892 oli kaikin puolin tyydyttävä ase, mutta sen heikoin puoli oli pieni kaliiberinen patruuna, jota käytettiin koska 8mm patruuna oli tuolloin Ranskan Armeijan virallinen kiväärikaliiberi.
		Mle 1892 säilyi vielä pitkään poliisikäytössä, sen jälkeen kun Armeija oli siitä luopunut.

		The Mle 1874 Artillery musketoon and the Mle 74 Foot Gendarmerie rifles were generally issued with the Mle 1866 yataghanstyle sword bayonet.
		The last version of the fl-powder-chambered Kropatcheks, the Mle 1885, was in fact the forerunner of the Mle 1886 Lebel and incorporated the slab-sided, steel receiver with separate buttstock and forearm, as opposed to the full-length stock of the other two models.
		The Poilu's referred the Mle 86 epee bayonet as "Rosalie." There is no reference to the Russian soldiers having applied a nick name of their own.

		The best example is the 1890 Gendarmerie carbine, the 1892 Mousqueton and the 1890T.15 Cavalry carbine which, except for markings and the bayonets used (a special epee for the Gendarmerie and the 1892 sabre for the other two), are virtually the same.
		Patrick, the only plausible explanation that I have for the marking is that it may have simpler (and perhaps less confusing) to use M16 instead of “1892 Modifie 1916”.
		That still leaves the question of why most seem to have gone to the Balkans — maybe someone requested “alpine” carbines or maybe the carbines with the prong just happened to be what was available for issue at the time and were sent to the Balkans.

		Minor changes led to the adoption of the MLE Mk I* in 1899 and the MLE Mk I (India Pattern) in 1905.
		From 1903 to 1909, a good many MLM and MLE rifles were converted to SMLE configuration by having shorter barrels installed and other minor modifications made.
		With an overall length of 44.5 inches, the new weapon was referred to as a "short rifle"; thus, the word "short" refers to the length of the rifle--not the length of the magazine.

		According to the French data, the muzzle velocity of Mle 1892 APHE round was 388 m/s, the weight - 0.5 kg, the explosive charge - 15 g (0.015 kg).
		Armour penetration was poor - 12 mm at 0 meters, but it showed enough to fight contemporary armoured cars in close ranges (according to other source it was 495 m/s and armour penetration: 15 mm /500 meters, but the first data seem more reliable).
		Mle 1916 HE round's weight was 0.555 kg (30 g = 0.03 kg of the explosive in it); the muzzle velocity was 367 m/s.
