Smoothbore, round, 18 mm cal barrel with square base marked "FONDO 6560" (Garibaldian Fund Mark) and "D..10" (barely legible), provided with front sight and clutch for the bayonet; sighted tang. Lock marked "M.re R.le de Charleville"; full wooden stock with various, barely-legible stamps, iron mounts and ramrod. Research has shown that it is probably one of the 3000 specimens purchased from the Swiss firm Cellier & Müller, and then given by Garibaldi to the Provisional Government of Brescia for 90000 francs.
