Italian M91 Carcano Cavalry Carbine 6.5X52MM
Up Next We Have an Italian M91 Carcano Cavalry Carbine Chambered in 6.5X52MM, Equipped With an Attached Folding Bayonet, and COmes WIth a Leather Sling. Adopted in 1893, the M91 Carcano Cavalry Carbine was the smaller variant of the standard-issue 1891 infantry rifle. This model was much shorter and lighter than the original, which made it more maneuverable on the battlefield, particularly for light cavalry units. This model also featured the spike bayonet, which gave cavalrymen an additional back-up if they were not using their sabers. Like the earlier models, the cavalry rifles are also chambered in 6.5X52mm or "6.5 Carcano" and feed from a 6-round En Bloc clip. Functionally, these were the same as the standard-issue infantry rifles but more compact.
