Attention New Members and those new registering!
We had a lot of problems with spammers and bot attacks with the stock measures provided by the software. The 7 for registration was a fix that we came up with on our own that has worked quite well. Yes it is a PIA for both you and administration to put you onto your chosen username.
If you come back on and your login does not work retry with your username without the 7.

Thanks for joining us from the administration.

Hello all! I'd just like to introduce myself. My name is Joseph Poarch and I'm active duty Army currently in EOD school. I got into Carcanos just before I shipped out and bought myself a $60 M41 sporter. The more I look into them more I am enthralled with them. I also just bought a post war M38 TS 8mm conversion for $120. I also just bought the book "Italy's Battle Rifle" from one of the co-authors on another forum site. I'm extremely excited to receive and read it. I've also been eyeballing a M91 cav carbine at a local shop in Destin. Looks like I may expand the collection soon. Just thought I'd introduce myself to the Carcano section of the forum and say I've found a lot on this forum extremely helpful (i.e. the 8mm clip conversion tutorial).
Thanks, Poarch.

Welcome!!! You want to talk Italian rifles, you have come to the right place! :bigrin: I'm glad you like the book! If you'd like, I can send a peel-n-stick autograph plate. Unless Russ already sent one with the book. I made a big stack for him.

EOD? In my LEO days, I took the civilian IED course at Redstone. A great school! SW

I'm glad to see such a warm welcome! I certainly enjoy EOD. Wish school wasn't as long as it was. Atleast I'm not Navy though and it be even longer. :bigrin:
