[CW2.0] Huot Automatic

The Huot Automatic Rifle was a Canadian World War I era light machine gun project. In 1916, the Canadian Expeditionary Force was desperately short of light machine guns. Since the Ross rifle had finally been taken out of service, there were large numbers of surplus rifles. That year, Joseph Huot, an engineer from Richmond, Quebec,adapted the Ross' straight-pull bolt action. His sample model, which shared 33 parts with the Ross Mark III,had a gas piston parallel to the barrel, which moved a sleeve on the bolt backward, operating the action. To absorb excess energy, the bolt was buffered. The entire mechanism was sheathed in sheet metal. Huot copied the cooling system from the Lewis Gun, then standard in British Army service. It fed from a 25-round drum magazine.

I ported this gun over from TFA. Big thanks to Werewolf M9K making the gun in TFA. I do not take credit for making the gun, merely porting it over to CW2.0. If the author has any problems, please message me.
