Most mid or above tier French tanks have an autoloader with a drum magazine, which allow for several shots in a short period of time. Almost all French tanks suffer from having few crew members which makes for less variety when choosing crew skills or perks, lack of sufficient hull and turret armor at mid-high tier, lack sufficient speed and mobility at lower tiers, and their guns almost always have long aim times.
All are meant for offensive action; lower tier French tanks rely on their armor to withstand enemy hits especially machineguns, and autocannons and higher tier French tanks rely on their speed to position stealthily and avoid hits. Lower tier guns tend to have poor anti-tank penetration, and will have trouble stopping other heavily armored vehicles advancing on them without premium munitions.
Conversely higher tier tanks will find themselves handicapped on the defensive, due to the extremely long reload times on the automatic loaders. On most tiers, poor turret armor prevents them from using hull-down positions effectively. They also generally have very poor gun dispersion and aim times, which can be very frustrating and inconsistent. World of Tanks Wiki Explore. World of Tanks.

In real life, these weapons are capable of fully automatic fire, with rounds fed to the Autocannon continuously from a magazine, consisting of a belt, a spring-driven box or drum, or are gravity fed, depending upon the gun's design. By historical convention, the term "machine gun" is applied to fully automatic guns that fire solid bullets and typically have a calibre smaller than 20mm.
The term "autocannon" is used to describe fully automatic guns that fire shells, typically 20mm or larger, which can be armour-piercing, filled with high-explosive, or variations thereof APCR, API, etc. Since there is no difference in the way these two weapon types function in the game, they are lumped together here.

Autoloaders, Semi-Automatic Guns, and Autocannons Most vehicles in-game use a traditional single-shot, breech-loaded cannon as the main gun. Autoloaders are robot-like, mechanical devices that are part of the tank, not the gun, and automatically reload the main gun after a shot, without intervention of human hands. Drumloaders - Autoloaders that can only reload the entire magazine at once.
Autoreloaders - Autoloaders that reload round-by-round instead of replacing the entire magazine at once. Semi-Automatic Guns , as the term is used in-game, refer to certain guns which are designed to be reloaded from a stick-type magazine, which is integrated onto the gun at its breech. Autocannons are weapons that rapid-fire a burst of multiple rounds with a single click of the trigger. Autoloaders Autoloaders are mechanical devices built into the tank, not into the gun.
Autoreloaders Autoreloaders can be considered an hybrid between conventional manual reloading guns and autoloaders that require reloading the entire drum at a time aka "drumloaders".
The ammo count is shown in a similar fashion to autoloaders. The loader will automatically refill the magazine until it's full, as normal, but the refilling process can be interrupted to fire the weapon, and reinitiated upon feeding a round into the gun breech.
Like on autoloaders, switching ammo types will clear the current drum, and the loader will start to refill anew. The involvement of manual refilling enables the usage of gun rammers.
