Original Remanufactured Item: The standard Italian service rifle and carbines used a Mannlicher-style clip, but it differed from the Austrian clip in that it could be inserted either end up. The clip contains six cartridges. The 6.5 mm caliber was standard in WW1.IMA has obtained a small quantity of remanufactured dummy cartridges and signal flares that had once been part of a large military collection. All of them have been manufactured by using inert fired cartridge cases and inserting bullets or wads. They were made for display purposes and were not dimensioned for functioning through the action. To simulate the early or World War 1 look, cupronickel (nickel-colored) bullets were used, although the cases may be of any date or manufacturer. The later or World War 2 look is provided by using gilding-metal (copper-like) colored bullets.
