Okay /K/, I'm having some issues with this Carcano I picked

>>30386970
Have you tried cleaning the chamber?

>>30386970
is your chamber clean?
is the brass dented when it comes out?
does it cycle smoothly unloaded?

>>30386970
Are you planning on mudering a president or something? Why do you NEED a high powered rifle?

>>30386980
Yes, sometimes and yes.

>>30386970
REST IN PEACE HEADSPACE

>>30386992
is this factory ammo or is it reloaded/loose ammo?

>>30386992
i've had problems with loading when it comes to soft points

so for now i'm just going one round at a time than using the clip

>>30387005
Factory Prvi Partizan. Do you think I need to polish the chamber down like you would with a Mosin?

>>30387019
you might need to clean the cosmoline out, if there is some. get a good picture of the chamber.

>>30386992
the feeding problem here is from shitty clips, id bet. the brass ones work much better than the steel ones.

>>30387013
That's another thing too, whenever I eject the last round the clip just sticks around in the rifle like a fly to shit. Do you have to insert the clip in a particular way?

>>30387019
it sounds like you might have a burr in there, by polishing are you talking about spinning a case in there with a little valve lapping compound?

>>30387013
>>30387029
>>30387032
> clip
Holy shit I'm new to /k/ and even I know they're called Magazines!

Try other clips, sometime mannlicher en blocs het funky with age

>>30387061
The Carcano uses a mannlicher clip YOU I D I O T

>>30387073
Guns use MAGAZINES! Clips are for like ancient WW1 guns and shit. Come on, you must be really new to firearms if you're calling magazines clips.

>>30387062
the chamber doesnt look too bad as far as cosmoline goes. either its the clips, what >>30387046
said, or possibly the extractor isnt catching the extractor groove correctly.

take out the bolt and slide a cartridge under the extractor. if it feels like it doesnt want to fit, it might be the extractor. then put the bolt back into the rifle with the cartridge still under the extractor and see if it closes easily. if it does, its the extractor or the clips. if its still difficult to close, its the chamber.

remember when trolling was a art?

>>30387112
trolling was never a art

>>30387099
Thank you

>>30387125
no problem. i had a similar problem with a 1903 i bought a while back. a few passes over the extractor with a file and now its smoother than a freshly shaven cunt.

>>30387148
Which angle or part of the extractor do I have to file down?

>>30387157
have you ruled out the clips and the chamber?

>>30387157
don't do that, you will make a machine gun and thats illegal

>>30387170
Not yet, but I would like to know in advance if the diagnosis is an issue with the extractor.

yeah, gnarly extractor, but everything else worked alright, clip gets a little sticky in the well but a shake usually fixes that

>>30387157
that i dont really know. i just did it little by little until the rounds fit without too much force. that might be a pain in the ass though because carcano extractors a re a bitch to put back in. start with whatever contacts the round first if thats what you decide to do.
i honestly dont know if its a safety hazard if you accidentally file too much. i would guess not because on rimless cartridges, the extractor doesnt have an affect on headspacing, but a more knowledgeable anon might know better.

>>30387230
Okay, thank you.

It may be the clip. Make sure that you're pushing the rounds into the clip from the front and not from the top like you would a stripper clip. If you do that you'll mess up the clip.

Check the side of the extractor closest to the inside.

They have a tendency to roll over the edge as its forced iver a rim causing a burr to prevent proper feeding.

Might be worth it to pull it off and clean the gunk from under it also

Thank you guys for the advice.
