Not your run of the mill rifle

[Maxman2]

M 38 Carcano. Sporterized (NOT BY ME). Soft recoil. Had to be careful with the ammo though. American 6.5 uses a .264 Bullet. Italian 6.5 uses a .268 bullet. The .264 bullet doesn't seat in the groves well and accuracy suffers, Made in the year 22 (Of Il Duci's reign). He didn't acknowledge the 1942 Anno Domini . I had the calvary carbine with folding bayonet, but sold it. wish I hadn't now. That was neater.

Glad I took the picture. I see I spilled some coffee on the way to the office. Better get it up before honey sees it.

I love Carcano's the weapon that killed Kennedy or that's what the Feds said I have a sporter and an original love them both.

Originals are a little hard to find. Congrats. Where do you get the Ammo. I have some Prvi Partizan (Don't check the spelling, Please). But that is no longer being imported from what I understand.
