i have the same rifle with the same inspection stamp, and the rods still in the butt stock. i love how the OEM ammo comes already in striper clips. now i just need the bayonet!
Ironic that Italy wanted to go to a larger cartridge but couldn’t, the British wanted to go to a smaller cartridge in 1913 but couldn’t and the US went to an even smaller cartridge in the 1960s but now is going to a 6.8.
I’ve not personally encountered one with the bayonet included, however you can usually find an original bayonet on EBay and the rifle on it’s own is usually pretty cheap (comparatively)
I’m actually in the US, Steinel Ammo is the only manufacturer I know but if I’m not mistaken I think they either have or are going to figure out shipping to Canada, you’d have to reach out to them to find out. Thanks for watching!
If you are in the USA, Steinel Ammo makes great stuff. They are a bit backed up so there will be a waiting period (I believe it says on their website but it’s something like 8-10 weeks right now) that’s what I’m shooting throughout this video
@@GreatNorthwestWeaponry I have them booked marked. Just wanting to see if the rifle is worth the effort. It is a gamble getting surplus from places like Classic Firearms. They have been good to me so far.
Eccellent piece! Love the carcanos
They are a lot better than most people give them credit for
Those are great guns.
Definitely underrated!

It’s such an interesting piece… Good luck with the bayonet!
I can't just stop loving this gun
It’s an awesome rifle! Very underrated in my opinion

Ballistic Stats, Gents-
The 7.35 Carcano Rifle fires a near exact .30 cal, 128 grain Bullet of .280 BC @ ~ 2484 fps.
With a fixed 200 meter Rear Sight, that puts the Round
~ +3" @ 100 yds,
~ +1.4" @ 200 yds,
~ - 10" @ 300 yds,
~ - 33" @ 400 yds,
~ -73" @ 500 yds &
~ - 133" @ 600 yds.
The Finns added a taller front sight. So the 7.35 is zeroed at 150m, not 200m.
M38 is basically the only Carcano that I actually like. Too bad 7.35 is virtually impossible to find lol.
CAR-CAN-O is the name of the rifle.......WOW BUD....WOW.

Car-can-o. Still subscribing loved the video also a northwest native.
Thanks for watching! I know I probably butcher pronunciations from tome to time lol I try not to
@@GreatNorthwestWeaponry your good half the country cant say oregon.
So we are looking a M38 short rifle not a carbine?
Clarification in the title would be great.👍
Technically yes, the “Cavalry Carbine” is more accurately called a Moschetto, in general terms both are carbines
Where can u find the Carcano?
Are you in Canada? Where do you find ammo for 7.35?

I have one of these, where do i find 7.35?

I have a 6.5mm carbine on the way to me. No luck on ammo
If you are in the U.S. you can order it from Steinel Ammo, there’s about a 7-8 week waiting period currently but they make good ammo

I’ve heard of people getting real gems from them and some borderline horror stories, good luck!
