for my namesake 2nd comment on ballistol: I'm in germany too and I have, not enough but.., towards all kind of guns I had in mind. FUNCTIONING ONES. go look for a club near you. train, compete and repeat. look up BDS1975e.V. you're welcome.

I have heard from a few people that the way you use the battle sight is to place the front sight low in the V notch like a 6 o'clock hold. Not "equal height, equal light" like we do now. Is there any historical, like troop manuals to support this??

Bruce Brodnax

Huh? No, the way most of those Yurpeen guns were meant to be sighted is to aim for the BG's belt buckle.

Bruce Brodnax

Don't skip the animation: you want your episodes to be stand-alone...

Bruce Brodnax

They were sitting in Ethiopia; Royal Tiger is the source for the recent glut of Carcanos [and some other horribly abused vintage rifles.]

"But what if you come across a bear ??" Love the humour

Excellent Carcano show, thank you. Glad you appreciate this rifle more.
