Just thought I'd share some pictures of my Beretta made Civilian Carcano.
Wondering if anyone knows at what points in the bore does the rifling twist rate change. Does it go from the 1 in 19 or so to 1 in 8 or so in one...
Next week, I am looking at what is suppose to be a Carcano Model 1891 Rifle that was made in 1918. Can you look at the rifle and verify it is in fact...

What type of wood finish did the Italian's use on the carcano's? BLO, Shellac?

Picked this up this weekend, probably the nicest Carcano of any type I've ever seen. First 91/28 I've owned, and am itching to shoot it. Great...
Picked up a project today, an Italian M70/87/15. Built at Brescia in 1878, its been around and I'm sure it could tell some stories. Aside from...
Brought home another misfit today..a Vitali M1870/87. Looks like she was originally made by Torino in 1873. The 'RIPARAZIONE' stamp shows a...
