1888 carbine

Thought the carbine´d have the same bolt. But it might be worthwhile mailing him anyway. He´s s got a load of stuff not on the website ... or can maybe get hold of it.

Thought the carbine´d have the same bolt.

The carbine has a turned-down bolt handle with a flattened cross-section. Something like this:

Attachment 46840

The rifle was actually designated Gew.91, not Kar.88. But Patrick Villiers is right - it's worth an e-mail, something might turn up.

Thank you all for your help. Will email the Historica guy tonight and hopefully he may have something.
