Re: a very nice look alike MS Carcano

Very interesting to me. This relatively obscure Canadian 6.5 x 54 M-S sporting rifle should be of some interest if only for its place in the history of the use of the 6.5 x54 M-S cartridge in Canada.

Those pages from the Eatons catalogue take me back to my reading/wiping material in the outhouse of my rural Alberta childhood. I spent a lot of time staring at those pages of guns. We had one shotgun and one rifle in the family, a Cooey .22 repeater, passed down to successive sons, who each in his turn would take on the responsibility of defending the farm from the ground squirrel horde.
