This video provides an in-depth analysis of a mysterious Pavesi Prototype rifle that is a mechanical copy of the Soviet SVT 38/40. Key similarities include the bolt, locking system, gas system, metal front handguard, muzzle brake, and sights. Notable differences are a fixed magazine fed by stripper clips, chambered in 8x59mm Breda, and an added leather buffer pad on the receiver. The rifle's Pavesi origin is identified by its unique safety lever. Markings are limited to repeated serial numbers (875). The video also notes modifications for easier disassembly and receiver cover attachment compared to the SVT.
