Finally!!! Someone who can explain why the gun reloads that way, I never actually noticed the chambered round fly out when you do a tactical reload before, explains why the animation looks broken when it's not, looks like you're reloading a 9th bullet, but it's just being replaced by the one lost from the chamber. Thanks, that's been bugging me for a while
Yh, its due to having a tubular magazine. The French were retared when they made the Lebel and didn't put in a lifter or some shit, my Grandfather was a reservist (I'm French) in the 50's and told me about it recently.
Box magazines have a patent from the 1860s. I don't think it was a magazine issue but feeding issue, as the tubular magazine is what makes the lebel a magazine fed rifle. the Mannlicher 1885 uses the enbloc clips which were the first wide spread use of clip fed magazines. the 1890s saw the rise of stripper clips which are much faster than one at a time loading. It was a limitation of loading technology at the time but this can be attributed to the firing procedures of the armies which can be seen through the enfiled rifles over time since some wanted to command single fire and not fire 5 rounds as fast as possible but 1 at a time towards the enemy.
@@Y34RZERO the tube magazine also came about from the design of the 8mm Lebel cartridge. The tapered case exists because the french wanted to use some of the same tooling they had from the 11mm blackpowder cartridge. The lebel round is a necked down modification of that cartridge, and was not conducive to box magazine operation...this is why the chauchat magazine is a big semi-circle...that's how the rounds stack together. It seems the french wanted to rearm their military as quick as possible, and this rifle in this chambering is how they managed to do that.
yeah, this is one of the worst guns to use k bullets with. same with 1903 experimental. but i love the lebel, i tear through enemies like paper and allows me to be more aggressive.
cgmaster2 Its honestley stupid because they made the whole animation redundant, instead of loading the K-bullet into the firing position he loads it into the magazine first
Nice to see a more gamer-y channel that still has good history. Not loads of info but nothing glaringly stupid. No calling a clip a magazine for example.
I love the sound of the rifle,and last bullet animation,clear sight,but reload takes forever,especially k bullets reload,I have fun playing with this rifle,but when my assault team mates go to destroy tank I need fast k bullets reload to help them,so for aggressive approach as scout m95 better choice.
Toggle reload before the last bullet gets in and you can skip last 2-3 seconds of reloading the thing. Makes the gun even more awesome that what it already is. Lebel Inf. is my go-to weapon almost everytime.
You want to know something mind blowing? This gun rattles like a bb gun. I mean the bullets rattle around inside the ammo tube making noise. This is at least what I have heard. It only happens if the rifle is shaken around or to certain motions while you use it. This might have been annoying and stressful in certain situations. I do not think it was enough you could not manage or circumvent. I think there were a much other stuff that could be of a concern to give you away. (like the sound of the bullet firing)
If you double tap Y to change weapons you can skip the last few animation frames of a full reload. As soon as your ammo counter hits 8 double tap change weapon to cancel reload animation and save a lot of time in tactical situations
CorsairGames yes and no. While the Bertier was a more modern rifle I think the French army without the Lebel in this game would have been a mistake. I just hope Dice does us all a favor and drops some free dlc rifles in the game, just some random guns we all want to see, Japan, Belgium and Spain all made great guns and the pool is already way to small in the base game. Two or three variations of the same gun is not the same as the shitload of guns we had in BF4 and that's without the DLC
Speaking of the Japanesse rifles Jim, I'm wondering if in the 3rd or 4th DLC they will add the Ariasaka 38, and for the Germans the Mauser M1896. Wonderful rifles in 6.5mm. to sum up my comment, the Lebel model 1886 should have at least been the 1886/92 variant. It was obsolete on so many levels.
The second bolt ISN'T necessary, it takes about 2 seconds for the second bolt, while once you put the first bullet in, you can switch to secondary and back really fast, taking less time.
Yes , I like infantry version and I prefer this over theRussian and Osaka infantry any day! I love the 8 rounds and the mechanics of the bolt action -accuracy of this rifle!
my personal favorite cause of the sound and skins for it. i personally dont mind the reload youd be surprised that going into battle to quickly will just get you killed and possibly those extra seconds where your reloading might save you when you looking around instead of just running. I always found myself getting less deaths with the lebel and i think its from the long reload time. Ill admit its not always the case but sticking your head out all the time to shoot just attracts other snipers. The long reload might even get other snipers to take their sights away from where you are cause you took forever to reload in a battlefield setting and next thing you know you see he aint aiming where you are anymore so you in turn kill him. Just my experience
it was possible to load 10 rounds in the lebel: 8 in the magazine, one on the loader, 1 engaged ready to fire, and in standard combat ,did the soldiers not use the magazine who was hold ready to stop a ennemy assault: they load shot per shot...
I've always wondered about the reload ... You say you've to sacrifice the already existing bullet in the chamber, but pretty sure that in reality if you held your hand on the bolt when opening it, you could simply press the bullet to lower the elevator it's standing on, push that bullet into the tube and add the missing ones, then close the bolt, reopen to have the elevator raise, place another bullet on the elevator and close the bolt. Judging by the tactical reload anim where the char places the 8th bullet onto the elevator, this should be doable. Not many bolt-actions allow mag+1.
Earth there was another war which had twice as many casualties(WWII), and a war with possibly even more that lasted a couple generations(100 Years War)
I got 5 headshots with the Russian 1985 in a conquest match, but for some reason it reset next round. I tried it again and got another 5 headshots in a conquest match, but it reset again!! Am I doing something wrong? Plz help!

Magazine-fed rifles were still on the horizon when the Lebel came about. Not "retarded," just the only solution they came up with at the time.
Box magazines have a patent from the 1860s. I don't think it was a magazine issue but feeding issue, as the tubular magazine is what makes the lebel a magazine fed rifle. the Mannlicher 1885 uses the enbloc clips which were the first wide spread use of clip fed magazines. the 1890s saw the rise of stripper clips which are much faster than one at a time loading.

@Qrazy Gile Only marginally better. Remember that early Berthier rifle had only 3 shots in the magazine
I prefer the Infantry version of the Lebel Model. I get way more kills with it than with a scope. Love this infantry weapon.
Using K bullets with this rifle is a nightmare because of its insane reload
yeah, this is one of the worst guns to use k bullets with. same with 1903 experimental. but i love the lebel, i tear through enemies like paper and allows me to be more aggressive.
cgmaster2 dude you can reload cancel once the round is in the chamber. You don't need to go through the whole animation.
cgmaster2 Its honestley stupid because they made the whole animation redundant, instead of loading the K-bullet into the firing position he loads it into the magazine first
It be faster if you scavenge for a assualt kit on the Battlefield and use the explosives
Who uses k bullets? lol
when you realise that they made more of these rifles that there are people living in your country
I know this is 3 years late, but which country?
@@BossXygman off topic but I just got back into this game after two years, is it dead yet?
@@eddie0415 never played the game just kinda, found this video
@@BossXygman gotcha, great fun 2 years ago, lobbies are somewhat full in certain modes.
Samoa. That’s a guess tho.
Nice to see a more gamer-y channel that still has good history. Not loads of info but nothing glaringly stupid. No calling a clip a magazine for example.
On the reload: wait until the counter says 8 rounds, then switch to your secondary and back really fast, and you skip the long reload.
Sky Flier was that a april fools thing?
@@movmafija what are you talking about he is right. You can skip the post reload animation that way
No it's April 1st, it would have been the best day to review the Kolibri!
Louie Leon yeah!
yeah he should of done that
Louie Leon oh that would have been a good idea
Love your vids. Hands down, you make the best battlefield weapon guide vids.
I love the sound of the rifle,and last bullet animation,clear sight,but reload takes forever,especially k bullets reload,I have fun playing with this rifle,but when my assault team mates go to destroy tank I need fast k bullets reload to help them,so for aggressive approach as scout m95 better choice.
I love how flat the bullet trajectory is. It makes so easy to hit enemies further away and up close.
this is my favorite scout class rifle, second would be the martini henry, and third would be Gewher 95.
We have the same three favorite scout rifles.
Mine is litterally the exact same :D
Zyzor same
Hell yea man! I love the lebel! my next favorite is the Geweher 98 and third is the russian infantry :D
Lebel is life :D
Toggle reload before the last bullet gets in and you can skip last 2-3 seconds of reloading the thing. Makes the gun even more awesome that what it already is.
Lebel Inf. is my go-to weapon almost everytime.
Best battlefield 1 channel there is

I miss this game sooooo much man, this is defiantly one of my favorite games ever
whats holding you back from playing?
Tried this rifle for the first time one a standard issue server, it was love at first sight
Dude 720 m/s is amazing compared to bf4 muzzle velocities.
This rifle is my go to gun, with the Gewehr98 being second
If you double tap Y to change weapons you can skip the last few animation frames of a full reload. As soon as your ammo counter hits 8 double tap change weapon to cancel reload animation and save a lot of time in tactical situations
It is satisfying to see and hear that reload. Makes you a bit more on edge. Among my top 5. The others being the Mosin, Gewehr 95/98, and the Ross
You should have mentionned the pain it is to use K Bullets with that rifle.
Lebel should have been the Berthier
CorsairGames yes and no. While the Bertier was a more modern rifle I think the French army without the Lebel in this game would have been a mistake.

switching to k bullets is a long and confusing ordeal.
that impact nade is dirrrty
Not only was smokeless powder, well, smokeless, it also was more powerful than black powder.
my favorite gun

Can we trade enemies? Mine shoot back
Awesome video!
the level is one of my favorite's of the scout rifes
David Tennant Llewelyn lebel*
This dude needs a weapon talk show
Nice frags...
Can you do the pilot/tanker weapons
You forgot one major pro: the sound! ;)
Nirnad yes! It sounds B E A U T I F U L.

yeah you can
Dude, should've done the Kolibri for April Fools
I love your pfp
I always call this gun the Bella sniper still a good video as always 👍
you're a smart guy
much smarter than jack or matt
My favourite infantry rifle
next video sjögren shotgun plz
the French seem to always come up with things revolutionary
holy fuck your aim is beautiful.
The French were the ones who invented smokeless powder? I've always wondered when it was invented and who came up with the idea.
why does war have to exist on me 😣
Earth I pooped on you
Earth Because Ich exist
Earth I eat parts of you
Guten Anschluss Time yes
Earth there was another war which had twice as many casualties(WWII), and a war with possibly even more that lasted a couple generations(100 Years War)
Plz do no.3 revolver
The Lebel AKA The Headshot Machine.
YOUR HIP
Which is a better close range sniper? The lebel or smle?
Brenzilla4698 gewer m.95
Anthony Quinones lol
The new Vitteli
Brenzilla4698 martini
M1903 Experimental! But I do like the Lebel more than the SMLE in my opinion.
the Lebel is like a handy caped British smle
Do you have to buy the dlc before you can complete the challenges to unlock theses weapons
+Sharpshot 899 Yeah, the lebel is a dlc weapon
KriticalKris oh I wondered why the challenges stayed at 0 no matter how hard I tried
Sharpshot 899 ooh that sucks dude. But seriously buy the DLC or the season pass. It will greatly increase the games fun factor
Jim Heeren I would but it's like £20 for 4 maps and 8 weapons
I believe it's 15€ per pack and with the season pas even cheaper. See u on the battlefield dude
That ammunition count is just irking me so bad.
The Lebel 1886 only held three shots.
That's not true. I have one and I takes 7 in the mag.
I just need 25 more kills and I'll get it lol
Lmao that Nagan1 guy.
the infantry looks like the gewer
Where Can I find the starting music in video
dandhan87 in the description
😀😀😀 you made the video!! If you don't remember me I suggested it🤓
Sgt Schultz rifle
I need help getting the lebel help
This gun is freaking disgusting. I clean up mad with this gun. It's sick. Just reload it up to 7, switch to pistol, switch back. EZ.
@Arthur Morgan, Formerly 4th Chairman Yes, its a saying as if it was badass. It doesnt literally mean it.
I got 5 headshots with the Russian 1985 in a conquest match, but for some reason it reset next round. I tried it again and got another 5 headshots in a conquest match, but it reset again!! Am I doing something wrong? Plz help!
Ryan D'Amelio You have to complete the second task first. It's dumb but it's how I unlocked it
thanks man i just got it today ;)
just a kind comment. You repeat the same meaning sentence after sentence. in some cases just rephrasing a bit.
?
It feels like he is repeating himself
Looks pretty meh. But that was some slick gameplay
And the berthier 1915
Yeah don’t use k bullets with this thing.
Lol when you said black powder i thought you meant cocoa powder lol im not being racist
All those terrible impact grenade kills though...
I like to aggressive snipe and this weapon sucks, probably the worst iron sights sniper in the game
wanna buy a real french ww2 rifle? Never been fired and only dropped once!!
