M1 Breda in 7.62x51

[medic2264]

This is my Breda project rifle in 7.62x51. The rifle is 1/2" shorter than a standard M1 Garand. This started out as a stripped receiver and parts were acquired over about a year. The barrel and op rod came from Sarcos. Luck of the draw for the 1/2" short BMB op rod (the lettering is hard to read since the repark.) The barrel appeared new with the cardboard insert inside the barrel. The stock and many other parts came from Andy in Italy (thanks a whole bunch.) Every part on the rifle is of Breda manufacture less the barrel, stock, and elvation knob (sub contractor for Breda).
Trigger group is all BMB
Bolt, extractor, firing pin BMB
All receiver parts BMB
7.62x51 spacer is marked BR
