Evening all. Welcome to the 21 year of the 21 century.

New year in Montana brought a morning temperature of 11, and a high of 40.

We had 4 people call in sick at work today, so me and one other guy did their work. Sounds about right.

I don't care either Greg or Ian designed this calendar, plenty of others out there, there is a Mexican one looks like an Oreo cookie but someone forgot to pick up an updated one a the mall kiosk. Wife says she don't know what day of the week it is half the time, I tell her to look on her pill container every morning.

EVERYTHING changed on December 21st, 2012!

The big change was that life continued. Usually does.

There was just recently a bunch of Carcano carbines imported from Ethiopia, both TS Carbines and Cavalry. I got a '91 TS from Palmetto State, pretty good condition for being stacked in a big metal shed for decades. I would think finding a lose bayonet for a cavalry carbine wouldn't be easy.

I hymned and hawed over those, I think when you linked to them  :-\ a while back. Classic FA has then now for   $269 99.

I decided to pass Already loading 30/40 , 303 British, 30/06  , 8 × 51 R Lebel   and 41 Swiss Vetterli

I just figured 6.5x52mm Carcano was some over reaching  :-\

However, the Carcano at the Gun shop is very affordable, bordering on " buy it you fool ! "
Even if I bought an original $49.50  bayonet from Sarco for it ,  it would still be under $200  :-*
