This was nice then i expected.I like the repair made on the stock,makes it special looking to see the craftsman ship.I got the bayonet screw/button parts on it and am waiting on the bayonet/spike to come yet. It is a 6.5 Carcano cavalry carbine. |

It's one of the very last cav carbines made - possibly early 1944. It was indeed made by Gardone arsenal. Late in the war there was no sense of urgency to add many of the standard marks so they were just omitted. SW |

You are now the proud owner of the world's ugliest cavalry carbine. Congrats. I have one too. Ugly is when the bayonet is deployed for action....roasting weenies perhaps? Mine is sitting next to me with a broken firing pin..... Oh the agony.... Best Regards, Mark |

I have been collecting Carcanos for some years and FINALLY scored a 91 Cav Carbine. Have a couple of 38s but no 91s. Don't have it yet but here is the link. Can't wait!! http://www.gunbroker.com/Auction/ViewIt ... =532495817 Bern |

I have been watching that rifle,I liked the bayonet screw has a handle on it. I have them all saved from before i bought mine. I really like that,You got the cleaning rods also.I forgot to bid on a set for 14.99 now the only set i see is $35. o well i will keep watching. What sling do these take ?? CONGRATS

change of plans I got this 6.5 carcano calvery carbine and a 8mm carbine barrel action to make a 8mm carbine .the Germans took the Italian rifle and made them shoot there 8mm ammo.yOU CAN see the cut in the receiver for the longer bullet. should be a fun build.hard to see the 7.9 restamp on the 1 site block. same bolt.should swap over with no trouble.Have a bayonet on the way for it. It stays on the rifle like a sks dose. |

Are you going to put an extra recoil lug in the stock like the originals? SW |
