WEAPONS
The weapon is breech-loading and very similar to the Ottoman MAUSER M1890 rifle, but without the corresponding engraved markings. Instead, on the outer top of its steel mechanism are the markings "PH 4395 TUBATA – TERNI & 16" and the marking "875552". The grip of the moving part is broken. On the bottom of the wooden stock there is a flat ring where the suspension strap used to pass. There is a similar ring on the steel band, which joins the barrel to the wooden frame in the middle. Finally, to the right of the stock there is a cross which is formed by seven engraved circles suitably placed. Its steel parts are painted with metallic paint.
