F. N. A Brescia 40-Xviii Mannlicher Carcano
M91 Bolt Action Carbine in 6.5 Carcano Caliber
Description: Here we present a F. N. A Brescia 40-Xviii Mannlicher Carcano M91 bolt action rifle in 6.5 Carcano caliber. Carcano is the frequently used name for a series of Italian bolt-action, magazine-fed, repeating military rifles and carbines. Introduced in 1891, this rifle was chambered for the rimless 6.5×52mm Carcano round (Cartuccia Modello 1895). It was developed by the chief technician Salvatore Carcano at the Turin Army Arsenal in 1890, and was originally called the Modello (model) 91 or simply M91. Successively replacing the previous Vetterli-Vitali rifles and carbines in 10.35×47mmR, it was produced from 1891 to 1945. The M91 was used in both rifle (fucile) and shorter-barreled carbine (moschetto) form by most Italian troops during World War I and by Italian and some German forces during World War II. The rifle was also used during the Winter War by Finland, and again by regular and irregular forces in Syria, Libya, Tunisia and Algeria during various postwar conflicts in those countries. This particular example is in good overall condition with the stock and action having matching serial numbers. The metalwork has some surface rust and finish loss. The stock is in very good surplus condition. The 18 inch barrel has good rifling but some frosting.
