I have a military collector bringing me a couple of Carcano's in 8mm,according to him they were modified by the Egyptian goverment post WW2.
He wants a couple of blocks made that fit in the magazine well of the rifle making it a single shot, as the clips will not accommodate the 8mm Mauser cartridge. Apparently the blocks were made of wood. I thought I might post here as frankly I can't see anywhere else to post it in the site.
Does anyone know of this modification??




would make the block from hardwood - oak - clear it inside for the spring because removing this is not a good idea.

krieghoff would had got maybe better results than changing the rifle for the 8x33 Kurz and use the short 15 rounds magazin for the Sturmgewehr.
I have tried everything and only a CZ 527 magazine was the solution for the 7,62x39 but I was looking for aesthetic also.
