Enjoy this Italian Vetterli Rifle Model 1870/87 Cal. 10.35X47MM Rimmed which is a Center fire Black Powder Ctg. Unlike the original Swiss Ctg. which is rim fire. It is hard to find one in the original caliber, as most were converted in WW1 to fire the 6.5 Italian cartridge, when converted to 6.5 the rifle is called the Model 1870/87/16……BILL

Hi ,
These are offered to me for sale.
I am a little worried about all the stamps and dates. Plus they seem to slightly vary from the originals Ive seen online.
Any help clarifying would be appreciated.Attachment 1032148Attachment 1032149

This was for sale in germany a few months ago. The seller gave full garantee on it’s originality and on the fact that all parts are period-original attached. (the visor looks reattached though). Maybe some parts are put together but that is not my question. The reason I post this is because of the cap maker: ‘Clewa’, better known as ‘Clemens Wagner’ from Braunschweig. As far as I know, when you spot a Clewa logo, that automaticaly means the cap is a post-war wagner product. I’m not very experienced but in this case however, I would get fouled extremely easily. This shirmmutze is looking very convincing TR to me… but.. it isn’t? Is the ‘clewa’ logo for sure post war?
