This carbine was built at Brescia and dated 1913. The TS carbine differed from the standard cavalry as it does not have a permanently attached bayonet. Front band has the bayonet lug. It has the standard adjustable military rear sight, double sling swivels on front band, one piece hardwood stock with forend. No visible import marks. Metal retains approximately 90% of the arsenal applied blue finish. Fine bore and action. Comes with a period sling. Fairly scarce carbine dating to the first World War.
