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.

Ring hammer, flat side model 1899 broomhandle Mauser specific to the Italian Navy. These had their own serial range from 1 to 5000. The key marks are a tiny DV and AV (Navy proofs) found under the barrel.

They were used in the Chinese Boxer rebellion, fighting in Libya, Italy's war with Turkey and in WW1. Examples also saw use in Colonial Africa.

And wouldn't I like to have one! But not at the going prices. SW
