Starting with the M91 rifle adopted in 1892, the Carcano would be the workhorse of the Italian military through two world wars and many colonial expeditions. The rifle is a simple but durable and reliable system with a Mauser type bolt, split bridge, Mannlicher magazine/clip system, and Salvatore Carcano's safety design.

Knife bayonet for use on the 6.5 mm. Mannlicher-Carcano M1891 TS Carbine (Moschetto Modello 91 per Truppe Speciali or Carbine M1891 for Special Troops). M1891 TS Carbines were intended for Artillery and Engineers.
This bayonet is for use with the M1891 TS Carbine 2nd variant, which had a unique transverse bayonet lug requiring the bayonet to be placed over the muzzle, then slid sideways on to the bayonet lug from left to right. This arrangement required the bayonet's press stud to be at the rear of the pommel.
The bayonet is sometimes referred to as the M1891/97, because the M1891 TS Carbine was first produced in 1897. However, this is a misnomer, as the the earliest TS Carbines had a conventional bayonet lug. The 2nd M1891 TS Carbine variant, with the unique bayonet mounting system, was first produced in 1900.
This example was made at Fabbrica Nationale d'Armi, Brescia (National Arms Factory at Brescia). Based on the serial number, the carbine with which this example was last issued was made at Brescia in 1917.
This rather odd mounting system was not continued on subsequent Italian bayonets nor was something similar produced by other countries. Many 2nd variant M1891 TS Carbines were subsequently converted to use the conventional M1891 bayonet, making surviving examples uncommon today.

Posts: 444 | I bought some 6.5 mm ammo at one of the gun shows in Columbia. However, it was not surplus. I've only shot mine a few times so I can't give a fair assessment of how well it shoots yet. Here are a few photos of my Carcano along with some of the markings.

I bought two clips at one of the Columbia gunshows for some amount that I have now forgotten, but I don't recall them being very expensive. Here's a photo of one loaded with six rounds of 6.5 mm ammo. [img]http://www.imagestation.com/picture/sraid159/p36c0fb44a1284d0c2402612f6d37c6d9/f4ff8fcf.jpg[/img] |
