Scotti Mod. X rare Italian Semi Auto

[r.blue]

Here are a few pictures of a somewhat obscure rifle.
It is a Scotti Mod. X. They were produced in very limited numbers. Maybe 250 of them in all.
Bill may have some more information on that.
This one is serial number 130. The condition is fair.
It fires from an open bolt and uses the same six round clip as the Carcano's. The caliber is 6,5 Carcano.

f
Dust cover closed in this photo. This also acts as a safety. It keeps the bolt from opening.
