Love you and yours videos and you should have more subscribers if only people know how good you are we need to make your content out there to the masses stay awesome greetings from Slovenia
Thanks much for watching, and no worries we are happy for the subs we have. If more come down teh road, even better but its all good no matter what, cheers.
So question. I have three carcano carbines. All have consecutive serial numbers. Two of them have the later style chamber area (round) and push button bayonet. However the one that’s smack in the middle number wise has the earlier chamber and bayonet style. Any help?
@@irocss85 actually I did. They were all from different factories. So I’m assuming the earlier one was either old parts or an earlier production carbine
@@patriothaven671 so far I've heard 1932 to 1938 had the rounded barrel when they restarted production and cut cost by doin the barrel round. Also that the push button bayonet is the most common variant.
Those spike bayonets look kinda rinky-dink compared to cruciform or blade style bayonets on mosins or a sks. But I’ve never even held a Carcano though. How does this bayonet design on these rifles compare to its military contemporaries from other nations?
You know, it does feel thin but I've never come across an M91 with the bayo broken off. So it must have been strong enough. Also it was very lightweight and didn't add any bulk really. Plus the cavalry still primarily used the sabre as their blade, so really this poker was just a backup of sorts. Either way, they are cool, unique, and fun to play with lol.
Great video. Appreciate the info. Mine is like your first example. Round barrel, push button bayonet. But I don't have a date stamped into mine. All the stampings are in great shape, and the barrel overall. Not rusty. Mine has a distinct Y Q in the place where the dates are typically stamped. And the Y Q is also part of the numbers matching stock. So far I can't find any information about the marking. Interesting you believe these round barrels were only made in the 1930s.

I got same questions. Round barrel, button bayonet. No date on my barrel though. You find any info about these specific ones?

How about the 7.5 and the converted 8mm rifles?
Come on, you know me better than that right? This series isn't just 2 parts, no worries.

There pretty stout. T shape not just a flat blade.
