Well, I found this bit of information...
This is what someone told me (via email) today about double trigger Carcanos. He said they were unsafe to shoot. Any truth to this? Here's what he said (word for word):
"I MAY NOT GET THIS EXACTLY RIGHT but it goes like this. After WW I COOEY made some sporterized CARCANOS with set triggers for the EATONS dept store chain. Because the 6.5 CARCANO ammo even then was hard to get they rechambered them to a specially downloaded 6.5 mannlicher round. Then someone found out the regular more powerful or available load would fit they tried it and a few of them reportedly blew up , so they were recalled, most probably didn't come back.. If that was the only problem , knowing this we could reload a lighter load and safely shoot them but in the process of sporterizing they replaced the barrel and instead of threading it in to the receiver , they pressed it into a stub of the old barrel then held it with a set screw. This may sound like a old wives tale but my brother-in-law had one he wanted to fire ,when I warned him about it he gave me the rifle and when I removed the stock there was the little set screw threaded into the bottom of a portion of the old barrel stub into the the new barrel. S o the problem is you can fire a 6.5 carcano round in an oversized chamber in a rifle with the barrel not held in in the proper way. Probably lots have been fired with no incidents but that was the warnings that I got I believe from a book about the history of COOEY's, it was in the second edition, if I remember correctly. I BELIEVE THE SET TRIGGER CAN BE USED IN ANY OTHER CARCANO."
