    I picked this up today. Its a 6.5, has the bayonet, FAG 42 on the stock. Not sure what I want to with it. I do know that I want to learn more about it.

    Lol thanks for the help! Yeah I was getting laughed at for that as well. Its still pretty cool.

    Since it said FAG, I thought maybe it was chambered in .40...then I saw the 6.5 haha

    I didnt see any values on that site. Any idea where I could find what its worth. Looks like on gb people are asking around 200-350 depending options and condition.

    I think $200-300 would be a good range for a G-VG example.
    Looks like you did well. A nice, original example. I'm still searching for a proper sling for mine. Not as easy to find as I first imagined!

    I picked up a folding bayonet for a Japanese 2nd variation Type 44 at the big antique show in Timonium. Only paid $25 for it, perhaps it could be made to fit a Carcano? ;)

    I just met him 10 minutes ago... and I am still at work. 04RWon swung by and we met in the parking lot. My Cav. is in much nicer condition so I will be swapping the bayo onto mine. Try to get some pics up tomorrow.
