When the American troops reached France in WW1,they didn't have a light machine gun,so they bought French 1915 Chauchat machine rifles,and modified some to fire the .30-06 round.Those rifles were less reliable than the French Chauchats,and,by the end of the war,most were destroyed,but not all.
Some French Chauchats were captured by the Germans in WW2.

STATS:

-Damage->65 (2 shots in medium range)
-Loaded ammo->20 bullets per magazine

-Model->Erazer
-Sounds->Jay and Galahad

We didn't make a WW1 collection in the end that's the thing. We decided it wasn't worth it to split the mod just for a few weapons, as it'd be too much effort.
The WW2 collection since then (around 2020-2021) also includes WW1 weapons without issues, as most were also kept. There's only discrepancies on weapons such as this (or the prototypes, like the Clair pistol and Hellriegel), and as such we think it's better to just keep it WW2.

If you want a lore explanation, in the world of the WW2 collection, the only difference with real life is that some prototypes were either adopted, or survived the scrapping of their "brothers" miraculously. Eventually, the German government would open caches and issue them to the Volkssturm.

@peanut i mean you're right, American Chauchats was only used in WW1. They were pretty much unreliable and nobody would even retain it with it's reliability issues in WW2 and yet this weapon gets shoved into ONLY WW2 Collection instead of only WW1 Collection for whatever reason lol
