I guess those piles of Carcanos went to Ethiopia and are now being sold by RTI!

No problem that Beretta likely did the serial number. Restamped serials are seen from every gun maker at least sometimes. It is a leap of speculation to then say that it is related to the UA47 marking.

Tha funny thing is the serial number on the barrel is the frame number.

That is more proof that it was renumbered at Beretta. They probably had a frame with a number already on it and reused it. Colt did the same in WWII with 5000 guns.

Maybe in the future some examples of the 28000 will hit the market
