List of Italian equipment who can still be field

[ncr117]

What about cosmi shotgun?
It is a unique Italian shotgun, and like the Walther shotgun, it seems to be a semi-automatic shotgun of the Axis powers comparable to the American auto-5.

@SzepWaxweiler

6 round and 25 round detachable magazine but 25 round one was meant to be fed by strippers

(Normal one with 6 internal mag)

6 round internal mag???
Isn’t this the 25rnd Fiat/Revelli mechanism?

[SzepWaxweiler]

Too small for 25 round mag also 25 round was detachable you didn’t have to strip it down to get the mag that’s why I called it internal mag anyhow

This here is the 25 round though it was detachable it was meant to be fed by stripper clips

[SmallebigE]

Found this a while back I had it in a note pad for Italian guns

http://firearms.96.lt/beretta1918.pdf

This about the beretta M1918 and other smgs
And also a explanation of these things unlike some ppl

[SzepWaxweiler]

@SmallebigE

And also a explanation of these things unlike some ppl

Haha funny man maybe you should have checked the topic I linked I explained all of the things I posted there An ultimate Italian weapons recollection
Also matter of fact I have so many gun suggestions topic and I explained most of the stuff here on them maybe you should also check those out and don’t acuse people of somthing before through research man (it hurt my feelings man)

[SzepWaxweiler]

The mag is 15 round but it can also accept 25 round

@gastanofrizzi

OG44 (tech tree)

there are two variants of this weapon with wooden and metal stocks

wood for TT and metal as premium

@gastanofrizzi

Breda M37/38 (HMG build)

@gastanofrizzi

Breda Safat (MG build)

better the 12.7 SAFAT instead of the Breda 37 would be more comparable to the other HMGs and more powerful than the 37 which is 8mm caliber

12.7 HMG

the Breda 37, on the other hand, would be better in place of the 7.7 SAFAT as an MG build, sacrificing the rate of fire for greater damage and less overheating

the 7.7 SAFAT would also be excellent as a final LMG for Italy with a 100 round belt

@gastanofrizzi

FM 24/29 (tech tree)

I don’t see the point in putting it in the TT, it would be better as an event or golden order

@gastanofrizzi

P26/40 (event)

absolutely NO this is madness
better to put the PZ4 G as premium (it would be different from the one in the TT given the presence of additional armor)

@gastanofrizzi

Semovente m43 da 105mm (premium)

same story absolutely NO
the 105 version on the 75/46 hull is better as a premium (better protection but same gun)

@SzepWaxweiler

For rifles there is also Bommarito Semi-Automatic Rifle but it was designed by an Italian immigrant in USA and was tested there so I dont think its a good idea to give it to AXIS

we can always give it to an Italian squad on the other side
a squad from the coobeligerant army of the southern kingdom would be a nice addition
( the uniform requires minimal changes from the English ones already present in the game )

@Willcario

GIVE ME THE AXIS RMN-50 PLEASE

this is even better because the Russian one is a rifle this is A HANDGUN
which means you can equip your Italian soldier with
flamethrower
grenade launcher rifle
grenade launcher handgun
and explosive Molotov cocktails

[CapitanRastrero]

You misunderstood my point/question. The one you claim to be a 6rnd internal mag is actually the FIAT/Revelli magazine that holds five 5rnd magazines and cycles them into the gun with a special mechanism like its shown in this video:

Fiat-Revelli 1914

There was no 6rnd internal magazine Terni Mod.21

[CapitanRastrero]

@Patton1998

which means you can equip your Italian soldier with
flamethrower
grenade launcher rifle
grenade launcher handgun
and explosive Molotov cocktails

Absolutely devious.

[SmallebigE]

So out of 60 or so like about 20 explains and several just go “blank order this or used this” also the one that zoom into the receiver I know where you got that from

Scotti Om42: troppo bella, troppo tardi

Here which if you even did a little more research for a little bit would show you a much better photo

And majority u named and the photos you’ve shown explain how they work or give more info you gave on average

So my point still kinda stand

[Willcario]

this is all really wishful thinking when darkflow doesnt even bother to give italians the right uniforms

[SzepWaxweiler]

I cant believe I have to go and do this but remember I said that I did make a lot of weapon suggestion and explained them there well and in that topic I gave explanation that Im gonna give brief to no description well here we go

@SzepWaxweiler

Scotti Om42

A prototype machine gun made by Scotti in the middle of the Second World War. Sublime execution and power to spare, thanks to the caliber chosen, but inspiring concepts dating back ten years earlier. Above all, it is unrealistic to offer a gun made entirely from solid material in the era of pressed sheet metal

@SzepWaxweiler

The Genar PM-470

The Giandoso (or Genar) PM-470 was a simple blowback-operated SMG produced in the last months of the war in Italy. It was developed as a cheaper alternative to the expensive but reliable Beretta Model 38. The Genar SMG was unsophisticated, with little extravagance and operating on a basic straight-blowback action in the 9mm caliber. However, it did have some unusual features, notably a push safety mechanism on the pistol grip - it was probably the very first SMG to employ this feature. The barrel at first glance appears to be finned, but was actually coiled by a large spring, which served no real purpose. Standard 20, 30, or 40-round Beretta magazines were used.

Only about 250 PM-470 submachine guns were turned out and issued to fascist troops before the factory that manufactured it was captured by Italian partisans. After the war, however, there were attempts to revive the design in several variations for export sale, to little success.(600 RPM)(20/30/40 Mag)

@SzepWaxweiler

Cie riggotti

this is from the British museum with 20 rounds also British army was testing this weapon for adoption

The Cei-Rigotti also known as the Cei gas rifle is an early selective-fire rifle created in the final years of the 19th century by Amerigo Cei-Rigotti, an officer in the Royal Italian Army. Although the rifle was never officially adopted by any military, it was tested extensively by the Italian Army during the lead-up to the First World War.
Also, this weapon had magazine sizes of 6, 10,20,25, and 30 with supposedly a 50 drum also the fact is magazine is fixed which means you have to load it with strip clips.

@SzepWaxweiler

Armaguerra OG 44

with stuck and without which one the devs choose The OG guns fed from standard Beretta magazines, usually containing 25, 30, or 40 rounds. For all variations of the OG design, the entire body was constructed from stamped sheet metal components to cut down the production costs, and the barrel housing was perforated with cooling holes. The OG-42 was fitted with an over-folding stock, similar to that of the German MP 40, and also made use of a hinged wooden fore-grip attachment near the muzzle. This feature was dropped in the OG-44.

@SzepWaxweiler

Variara submachine gun

The Variara was produced covertly in Biella for use by left-wing Italian partisans, who were engaged in a guerrilla war against both Mussolini’s government and the German occupying forces. Production began in 1943 and lasted until the end of the war in 1945. It is not known exactly how many of these weapons were made during that time, and few still exist today

@SzepWaxweiler

Isotta Fraschini Mod. Albertini

The Modello Albertini was an Italian submachine gun produced during World War II by Isotta Fraschini

The weapon accepts 25- or 32-round MP 38 and 40 magazines and has an underfolding wireframe shoulder stock. A selector switch is located at the right side of the weapon, allowing the weapon to switch between semi-automatic and fully-automatic fire

@SzepWaxweiler

60mm Lanciabombe

The Italian 60mm Lanciabombe was an experimental design for an infantry portable, shoulder-fired anti-tank gun. The weapon was based on a bolt-action rifle. When fired, a blank cartridge in the breach would propel the shaped-charge bomblet out of the barrel. It was able to penetrate up to 70mm of armor.

The project was worked on between 1943 and 1945, but only one prototype was ever built

@SzepWaxweiler

Armaguerra Mod. 35

The Armaguerra Mod. 35 was a blowback-operated submachine gun. It had no select-fire capability and fired exclusively in full-auto. The weapon feeds from detachable box magazines feeding from a magazine well located on the right of the weapon.

@SzepWaxweiler

MBT 1925

Despite appearing like some sort of self-loading rifle, the MBT 1925 is actually a straight-pull bolt action rifle. The rifle’s bolt is notably quite complex, with an added safety feature that rotates the locking lugs when the firing pin is extended to prevent the rifle from firing out of battery

@SzepWaxweiler

Tipo terni model 1921

(Normal one with 6 internal mag)

(Detachable mag)
It’s a prototype semi-auto carbine made by the Italian Terni arsenal in 1921. The cartridge was an experimental 7.35x32mm using the 6.5x55 base dimensions propelling a 8.71 gram bullet to 600 m/s (135 gr at 2000 fps). This gun competed in an Italian trial in May 1923, alongside a 6.5mm carbine and three 9mm Glesenti submachine gun designs. The Terni rifle was the only favored design and was further developed in 1928, but never went beyond the prototype stage.(The rifle in this picture is a semi-auto prototype, but selective-fire models were actually made. and Amazingly, a few of these guns have actually recently been discovered in Ethiopia, so they must have been issued to a limited extent during the Italo-Ethiopian War of 1935. They were made in semi-automatic and selective-fire variations.)(7.35x32mm which I guess is kind of intermediate cartilage so if we ever get select-fire version of this it would be considered an AR also 25-round “strip feed” box magazine
Detachable box magazine)

@SzepWaxweiler

Scotti Naval rifle

The Scotti Naval Model was developed in the early 1930s. It was proposed to the Italian Navy as a potential anti-aircraft weapon for sailors, specifically for targeting low-flying planes that posed a threat to patrol boats. After undergoing brief evaluation, the Scotti Naval rifle was not adopted and development of the weapon ceased. Only a few prototypes were made.

@SzepWaxweiler

Maefassi gas-operated conversion of the Mannlicher M.95(8x56mmR)

An Italian officer, Carlos Maefassi, designed this gas-operated, self-loading conversion of the Mannlicher M.95 rifle, while he was stationed in Ethiopia in the late 1930s. The conversion operates on a basic underbarreled gas piston with a long rack to allow the straight-pull bolt to reciprocate. A pistol grip was added to the stock. The Maefassi conversion was tested in about 1940 but never advanced beyond a prototype.

@SzepWaxweiler

Genoves-revelli semi auto rifle

The Italian Army in the late 19th and early 20th century was experimenting with new forms of warfare; they were among the first to utilize aircraft and armoured cars in battle. In the early 1900s they made tests of several self-loading rifles, including the selective-fire Cei-Rigotti, the Freddi, and the Ricci. In particular, there was a desire to equip the Bersaglieri , Italy’s mobile cyclist infantry, with an automatic infantry rifle to compensate for the fact that machine-guns were too heavy for them to effectively transport.
In response to this, a self-loading, recoil-operated conversion of the standard Carcano 6.5mm rifle was patented by Filippo Genovesi in 1905. This rifle operated on a rotating bolt with a series of locking lugs around the bolt head. The design was further refined at the Terni National Rifle Factory under the direction of Col. Abiel Revelli, who was responsible for most of the Italian Army’s automatic weapons including the Glisenti pistol, FIAT-Revelli machine gun, and later the Villar Perosa submachine gun. Tests were carried out by the Bersaglieri in 1908 - 1909 and by 1910, the Italian government decided to order some 6,000 Genovesi rifles, to be manufactured at Terni for the cost of over one million Lira.

The Genovesi rifle was by this time known interchangeably as the Genovesi-Revelli or the Revelli-Terni, and a preliminary batch of 150 were delivered to the Bersaglieri in 1911. These rifles actually did apparently see combat use in Libya during the Italo-Turkish War (1911 - 1912), but performed so poorly in the desert that the entire order was prematurely cancelled before the 6,000 guns could be produced. This was around the exact same time that Mexico was fielding the Mondragón rifle.

@SzepWaxweiler

Terni M91 Carcano Semiauto conversion

This rifle started out its life an a normal M91 Carcano long rifle, before being converted into an experimental self-loader by the Terni Arsenal. Rather than adding a gas piston to the barrel, Terni engineered a short recoil system. The barrel and bolt recoil together about a centimeter (3/8 inch) upon firing. Instead of the original bolt with two lugs and a 90-degree throw, a new 8-lug bolt was used, which only requires a slight amount of rotation to unlock. That unlocking is done by an angled wedge that the bolt travels up as it recoils rearward.

The rifle is still chambered in the original 6.5x52mm caliber, using standard 6-round Mannlicher style clips. The date of the conversion is not clear, although the base rifle was manufactured in 1908.

(A huge assumption here this rifle was made before ww2 , but it might as well be after the war here are my reasons is usage of 6.5 mm which wouldn’t make sense in a world in the aftermath of WW2 (the ammo is hard to get to nowadays,too the batches dry up so fast and then you have to wait like a year so they can restock and to get your hand on those rounds but before you can it all dries up again ) but for all I know it might have been a gun from after WW2 if that’s the case ignore this

@SzepWaxweiler

ZK-391

The ZK-391 is one in a series of Czech developmental semiautomatic rifles designed by Josef Koucký. It was developed initially in 1939 (hence the “39” in the designation), and was tested by the Italian military in 1943. It was ultimately not put into production, but nonetheless is an interesting detail of rifle development – a Czech design made under German occupation for Italian trials .

Mechanically, the rifle shared many elements with the M1 Garand, including the two-lug rotating bolt, the long stroke gas piston, and the removable gas tube. It has several unique elements as well, like the trigger guard doubling as a lever to recock the hammer and the out of battery safety mechanism incorporating the receiver top cover.God bless Ian

@SzepWaxweiler

Beretta Mod.18 fed from bottom

his is a proper Revelli-Beretta submachine gun feeding mags from the bottom. It appears that this was achieved by simply flipping the receiver (lifted straight from the Villar Perosa SMG) on its head, evidenced by the inverted cocking slot. The gun likely ejects straight upward, and this is probably why it was not preferred over the standard top-feeding model - the rapidly-ejecting bullets would have obstructed the user’s line of sight during firing and therefore defeated the point of placing the mag underneath somewhat.

@SzepWaxweiler

Beretta Automatic Carabine

Obtained by attaching a delay spring to the bolt of an O.V.P., and by changing the firing system to one having a button that permits full-automatic fire.
When the button was not kept depressed, the weapon fired in semiautomatic upon normal pull on the trigger.
Probably exists only in this prototype.
(Most likely a prototype that led to Beretta model 1918)
(9mm Glisenti/25 round)

@SzepWaxweiler

Beretta mod. 1939 with scope

I couldnt find info on this weapon other than that it can be fed using the Beretta model 18/30 mags and it was requested from goverment
9 mm parabellum

@SzepWaxweiler

Automatic variant of model 18/30

Compared with the preceding Mod. 1918/30, of which it is a variant, this arm presents some modifications to the firing system and to the rear sight.
It was adopted by some Police units and by the Italian Forestry Service.
Can use Beretta 18/30 mags(25 OR 15)(9 mm)

@SzepWaxweiler

Extra-Light SubMachineGun Beretta

This is an attempt to modernize Beretta Mod18/30 though this was only made as prototype and later Italian engineers built the best SMG of the war (MAB 38A) so there was no need to this

@SzepWaxweiler

Mab 38 peototype

made up for the Ministry of Italian Africa.
Expulsion is upwards. The barrel is enclosed in a finned aluminium radiator sleeve. Butt has a separate firing pin driven forward by a cam: when the cam strikes the base of the ejection stud, it is rotated rearward and its top section forces the firing pin forward to strike the cartridge.

@SzepWaxweiler

MAB 38 (1)

One of the first definitive prototypes of the Mod.MAB 38A, it has two separate triggers. Ejection is upwards; folding-rod bayonet is adapted from Mod.91 short rifles.

@SzepWaxweiler

scotti model x Brescia

I think this was a prototype of Scotti model X but it might be a modification anyway the difference is simple the gas tube is not hidden so this might be a good event squad

@SmallebigE

into the receiver I know where you got that from

So did I ever try to hide that one click on the image (search from google lens ) and you could have find the gun not that many will do

@SmallebigE

And majority u named and the photos you’ve shown explain how they work or give more info you gave on average

So my point still kinda stand

Yes and no cause me explaining everything there would have bored everybody man there was tons of things that I included there and some had no explanation like the only thing about M1939 with scope is that it was requested by government why are you the way you are BTW check my other weapon suggestion

@CapitanRastrero

The one you claim to be a 6rnd internal mag is actually the FIAT/Revelli magazine that holds five 5rnd magazines and cycles them into the gun with a special mechanism like its shown in this video:

I see man sry I was out of it yeah you are right well thanks for explaining the image did more than video actually in that case second image with detachable mag would be MOD.21/28 which was an improved version of the gun

[Myrm1don]

One day, I dream to have an Italy Line up at all BRs.

[SmallebigE]

So you expect ppl to go through all of ur post to find any info of any of the guns you suggest? That’s merely ridiculous

So you can bring out 23? Out of 5 post that probably contain a lot more firearms that than just the “some Italian guns” post

That’s bad

Most of the post you just say the name give a photo
And maybe say the operation
Maybe the info of the gun

But the majority of the firearms you’ve shown have barely any info at all

Plus have you thought the consequences of post like this bc you weren’t the only one I’m talking about when I try to do research on these firearms you and other pop up all the time and it clogs the well of info

This the issue I have bc you taint the water and make it harder for ppl like me to find anything about a gun but literally just a name and photo nothing else about

This my main beef idc about that I don’t pay them mind but the fact it fills up other things it’s annoying

But I also save theses in a notepad bc they contain names and make my look for finding such easier

[SzepWaxweiler]

@SmallebigE

So you expect ppl to go through all of ur post to find any info of any of the guns you suggest? That’s merely ridiculous

No cause none beside you will do that and obviously the OP didn’t gave explanation about the guns he put on the topic because neither his or my OBJ was to make them understand how the gun works or how it came to be just bring fun guns so people enjoy you get the whole thing wrong

@SmallebigE

Most of the post you just say the name give a photo
And maybe say the operation
Maybe the info of the gun

There are 2 topics which I just gave name and no explanation to zero explanations one being

• An ultimate Italian weapons recollection

which is recollection and I said in that post that these were going to be without or any description
and it was meant to just collect every Italian weapon suggested in one place so anybody would have access to it

• Pistol suggestion (very long )

This one was very long bet it would be more than 35K word which is the limit on how much you can post you know how I know that because I hit that limit one trying to create a French weapons topic had to cut down but by far my longest topic which in I explained every gun but that’s not the point every topic I explain everything beside the long ones because duh they are long

@SmallebigE

This the issue I have bc you taint the water and make it harder for ppl like me to find anything about a gun but literally just a name and photo nothing else about

This my main beef idc about that I don’t pay them mind but the fact it fills up other things it’s annoying

I don’t understand this man what does it mean

@SmallebigE

But I also save theses in a notepad bc they contain names and make my look for finding such easier

And you are not the only one who do that I also have a list which I go through and research about brother Im really struggling to understand why are you so upset about if you were going to research something that I posted here why couldn’t you ask about it from me I’ve posted it so I should know few things about it right its not like I just see a photo and just post it here with name attached I thoroughly research

[Myrm1don]

Only things i need to know about the weapons in this topic are

A - WW 2
B - Italian

perhaps a picture to see if its one of those fuglys

= yes please

[SmallebigE]

Idc care how they work ether literally explain anything about them like why they where made what cause this development to happen anything

Ether way tho have something to read up on

self-loading_rifles.pdf

Just pls do any explanation of what it his then just name

[SzepWaxweiler]

@SmallebigE

Idc care how they work ether literally explain anything about them like why they where made what cause this development to happen anything

Man you do you I do me lets agree on disagree

@SmallebigE

Ether way tho have something to read up on

NGL this feels like insulting but none the less thx imma look it up

@SmallebigE

Just pls do any explanation of what it his then just name

Already did man just because I posted bunch of pictures from my many suggestions you mad? anyhow it is what it is

[gastanofrizzi]

@SzepWaxweiler

OP didn’t gave explanation about the guns he put on the topic because neither his or my OBJ was to make them understand how the gun works or how it came to be just bring fun guns so people enjoy you get the whole thing wrong

Indeed also I putted thing who come out in the first results if you search them, nothing who need more than just type the name otherwise I should add link and description and it would take hour
