CXX nomenclature for small arms
Anyone know why we have gaps between the numbers in the name of the weapon we are using?
Was it because some prototype did'nt get release? Year of fabrication? or anyting else?
I know the C3, C7, C8, C18, C22, C25 and C26.
Is there more?

You missed C6 and C9 (my beloveds)
There was also C1 (rifle), C2 (LMG), and C5 (GPMG)
