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 will accept PayPal, Zelle, MO and good old checks (and cash if you want to stop by for a tour!). CLICK BANNER to send me a PM for International pricing and shipping.

I suspect that this is a 1891 rifle that has been cut down to carbine length. The rear sight appears to be a rifle sight. Where, when and why I could not even begin to suggest.

What you have there is a Italian icon

It's an M91/24 in 6.5mm Carcano made from a cut down WW1 era M91 Fucile. Conversion work done at Beretta.

Rifle was originally made at the short-lived Roma arsenal in either 1917 or 1918.

Proper name is the M91/24 Moschetto T.S. where TS= Truppe Speciali.

Hope that helps.
