en1=240The 7.65mm Longue (also known as 7.65mm French Longue, 7.65 mm Long, 7.65mm MAS, 7.65x20mm, and 7.65L) was a straight, rimless cartridge used in the French Modele 1935 pistol and MAB model D pistol, as well as the MAS-38 submachine gun.

The US .30 Pedersen cartridge (or ".30-18 Automatic") used in the Pedersen device was the basis for the 7.65mm Longue, the dimensions being identical. The French military were introduced to the cartridge when the US demonstrated the Pedersen device after the end of World War One in LeMans and again when John Browning exhibited a carbine in the same caliber in 1920.

7.65mm Longue ammunition was manufactured in quantity from approximately 1935 to 1960.
