    Question M91/28 Italian Carcano

    Hello Gentlemen,

    I am looking to acquire this Carcano from an individual. I wanted to get an idea of how much it is worth. What I know is that it is a 1928 production 91/28 and was manufactured in Terni. It is all matching and appears to be in immaculate shape. The one issue that worries me is that the stock appears to be laminated. Was it initially lacquered in arsenal or was it done by an owner? Whatever the case, how much does the lamination affect the value? He is wanting $200 cash for it.

    A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered.  Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle. For the record this is not a moneymaker, I hope just to break even, eventually, at $80/book plus shipping.  In the USA shipping is $5.00 for media mail.

    I can't make out the date on the buttstock stamp. If it's postwar, then the lacquering may have been part of an arsenal refurbishment.

    I suspect the finish isn't original, I have never seen one with that type of finish, but I could also be wrong. I have no clue in terms of value.
