As the title says, I am taking possession of a Martini Muscate carbine on Thursday. It is chambered for the .577/450 cartridge, and it is, as they say, 'Arab decorated'. It is one of three rifles brought back from Saudi Arabia in 1958, one of which I already own. (a Gras cavalry carbine that can be seen on the General Milsurps forum) I've heard of these variants, but this is the first one I've seen in person. I undestand there are two spellings of 'Muscate', depending on who they were intended for. Any truth in this? Will have pics Thursday!
