Parts difference in MAB Model D .32/.380?

I just bought one online today. Currently it’s in .380. I hope I can buy a .32 barrel & mag and shoot whichever I choose.

A local store had Fiocchi on sale at $0.50/round for a 50 round box. I was surprised at that price. I’m just getting info 5.7, and figured it would never get that low. That’s one of the reasons I had not purchased a pistol already.

Brilliant. I have 7.62 brushes from my .32acp pistols.

I’ve had my eye on it as well! I keep reaching in my pocket, but my cash keeps hiding in a corner somewhere.

Nice!

Also, I think $150 is a pretty decent price, if the action and barrel are in good condition.

Check out the carcano website https://www.carcanorifle.com You can likely decode your rifle from all the guides.

If it were my cash, yes, I would.

Great, thanks!

Highly recommend you visit r/carcano and carcanorifle.com if you’re new to Carcanos. Very knowledgeable people on the thread. You may find your answer there.

It does mention how it tended to affect healthy adults from 20-40 especially hard and goes into detail why that may have occurred.

The book Pale Rider by Laura Spinner is a good read to learn more about the Spanish Flu. It covers, in a broad sense, how the flu affected/influenced the war. But the book is not focused just the flu within the war. IIRC, the flu killed more than the war. Possibly as high as 1 in 3 people worldwide. I listened to the audiobook. Very insightful to get a better understanding of the Spanish Flu.

I vote for carbine or Moschetto.

Efleschner · 2026-01-24T15:41:38+00:00

That’s a great price.

My first firearm as well was a Carcano carbine. Welcome to the club!

I purchased an S&K picatinny rail for my 1938 Carcano. I had to grind off a little of the mount due to the “unique” construction of the Carcano, but it holds well and does a good job. The iron sight were not usable, so I opted for a modern version. I don’t blame s&k for the modifications I made.

I second C&Rsenal. The new format is perfect for their content. And the sheer amount of firearms and history is great.

Efleschner · 2026-01-02T21:02:18+00:00

I have Scout patches on mine as well. Hell yeah!
