Antique Italian Vetterli Model 1870/87/15 in 6.5mm carcano caliber. Vetterli was the Italian service rifle, massive in length and originally a 10.4 mm single shot rifle in 1870s. Over the years they were updated as clip feed repeaters and finally around World War I they were converted again into the 6.5 Carcano caliber using enblock clips. Around 152 years old, these rifles are still available and do dry fire. Plenty of dirt, wear, finish loss, light rust, scratches, ding, dents and missing small parts, if there was a story to tell, I sure it would have a long. These are in stock come by the store and pick one out, special black powder ammunition will soon be available in store.
