7x57 Turkish experminal calvery carbine

[dgr416]

I have a Turkish unfired 7x57 calvery carbine .Its like new I was told it's a experimental model to use on horses .The rifles are usually in 8x57 caliber .This is the only one ever made .I picked it up at a gun show the guy didn't know what he had .It has a full stock and a butter knife bolt . Its smooth as silk I wanted to shoot it but was told to leave it unfired . This one probally belong in a museum some where.

How about a few photos??? There were several different countries that had full length stocked carbines of military origin.
