One of the first bolt-action rifles issued for military use, the Vetterli had a service life in Italy of 70 years. This fascinating new guide will cover all of the variations of the rifle and carbine, both in single-shot form and with a variety of magazine feed systems, such as the famous Vetterli-Vitali.

Illustrated in color throughout, this useful new study will help the reader identify examples based upon their features, as well as appreciate this rifle's special place in military history.
