119B SOLD Model 38 Italian Carcano Carbine, 7.35mm Carcano Caliber.
This is the prettiest little Carcano Carbine I have seen in my life. It has 98% bright lacquer or varnish finish on the
short wood stock, and about 98% of the shiny blue on all metal. As was the case on these little half-stock
carbines, it has a flop-out bayonet hinged to its muzzle. The bore is brand new and it
looks like the entire gun was just issued yesterday.
F.N.A Brescia made this one, and it has neat little built in side-sling
swivels on the left side as well as a dinky little elevated rear sight. Italian World War
II rifles don’t come any better than this!
$269.99
120B SOLD British Enfield #4 Mark-1
This World War II British Army weapon was probably sporterized by a British company by
replacing the military rear sight with a sporting adjustable sight down near the breech of
the barrel, shortening the fore-end and finishing it, then putting civilian sling-swivels
on it. The metal parts on this are all
military black enamel except for the brass butt plate and shiny bolt. It has a 10 shot detachable magazine, and the .303
British cartridge makes it a very powerful and accurate deer rifle with a good bore and
rotating thumb safety.
Only $69.99
121B SOLD Japanese Arasaka Model 99 Rifle, 7.7 Japanese Caliber
This 7.7 Japanese caliber Arasaka Model 99 Rifle has been converted into a sporter by
cutting down and refinishing the stock. It
has a sporting rear sight near the chamber of the barrel, but it is also drilled and
tapped, and already had a mount for a scope. Most
of the metal appears a nice blue-black, and the stock has a good varnish finish on it. With 7.7 sporting ammo being easy to get now, this
will make someone an excellent deer rifle. Also,
a little known fact is that the U.S. Government found that the Japanese 99 rifle was the
strongest of all the WWII guns. They would
literally squirt the barrels out of the actions with overpressure cartridges, but could
never blow them up. All this history for
only: $69.99
122B SOLD #1 Mark-3 .303 Caliber British Enfield Army Rifle
It appears that the serial number on this is #1555J.
This is a typical sporter made by British companies, probably Cogwell and
Harrison, out of British World War I military weapons. The year made was 1917. They re-finished the stock, painted the fore-end
black, attached the barrel to the stock via a band and a screw, mounted civilian
sling-swivels, and used a piece of wood to fill in the hole from the regimental disk in
the butt. A 10 shot detachable magazine, a
rotating thumb safety, and a good bore will make this a great deer rifle for some young
man. $69.99
123B Belgian Percussion Musket 1842 Model
This musket has a 34½” smooth bore barrel bored out to 10 gauge. If the barrel
had a sword bayonet lug on it, it is now taken off. The barrel on this one is polished
with black patina accents. All the furniture appears to be polished steel, with original
Belgian writing on the lock. The furniture is identical to the previous musket. The stock is cut off 5½” in front of the
rear band. Both front and rear sling swivels
are on this one. It appears that the
Holy-water mark is present on the stock as well as other inspector’s marks. This butt
stock has been very lightly sanded, and presently has a very heavy coat of varnish. The
stock is complete with dings and nicks; however, if you mated this one and the previous
musket together you would have quite a prize.
This musket alone: $150.99
Purchased
together with #115B: $599.99 total
