Looking for stories about interesting and unique firearms. Did a specific gun save your life? Is there something unusual about one of your pieces?

nice, can you use it? I mean where would you get ammunition for this gun? Do you make it? What interested you about this piece?
I am an engineer at heart and i find a lot of older mechanical devices are really as much art as machine.

It is in firing condition and the ammo is sold thru a few vendors.
The bolt config really busted my fingers up trying to pt it back together.

Is just a addition to my wwII collection..

every time i mention my Carcano soeone always say "Oh, the gun that killed Kennedy?"

My model is not the same as the Kennedy gun.
