Carcano Carcano Bolt Action 6.5x52mm Carcano Rifle
Carcano M91/41 Rifle 6.5 x 55 Bolt Action Rifle
SOLD AS SEEN
In good condition for it's age. Bore and woodwork is good.
The outside of the barrel shows discolouration watermarked/cosmetic wear etc but is fine besides that.
If you cleaned/blued the barrel this rifle would look like new. It is not something that bothers me with an old military rifle.
Take a good look at the images as they show the true condition of them.
What you see is what you get.
CAN TRANSFER TO YOUR LOCAL RFD.
If you have any questions, please message me. Thanks.
The standard Italian rifle of the Great War was adopted in 1891. It was fed with a 6-round clip. The clip was a Mannlicher design and the breech block assembly was designed by an Italian gunsmith named Carcano.
While it is looked down upon by some devotees of the "finer" rifles, it was a rugged weapon that didn't foul up easily and withstood hard treatment. Its smaller cartridges "Cal. 6.5x52 mm vs. 7.92 mm Mauser" meant a soldier could carry more rounds and its clip held 6 rounds vs. 5 per clip for almost all rifles of the other belligerents.
