The Meunier rifle, known as the "Meunier A6" or "STA No. 8", evolved as a part of the program initiated in 1890 by the French military to develop a semi-automatic infantry rifle that would eventually replace the Mle 1886–93 Lebel rifle. Four government research establishments (STA, ENT, Puteaux and CTV) proposed over 20 prototypes. About half of them were based on recoil (both short recoil and long recoil) and the others were gas operated. This secret program was placed under the direction of General Naquet-Laroque who headed the Puteaux (APX) government arsenal.

Quatre établissements de recherche gouvernementaux (STA, ENT, Puteaux et CTV) ont proposé plus de 20 prototypes. Environ la moitié d'entre eux étaient basés sur le recul (à la fois le recul court et le recul long) et les autres fonctionnaient au gaz.
