I just picked this up recently. I have absolutely no experience with Carcanos.
Any info you can give me about it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks! Not very many markings on it. 
Serial number I believe and on the top it says TERNI 
Has the number 18 and what appears to be A1 above it.

A bubba'd Model 1891 for the Torre Annuzaita Arsenal is my guess. Can't tell from the photo if it has a long rifle barrel (originals were 29 inches) or if it's a carbine barrel or a shortened rifle barrel. The rear sites are for the rifle. There is usually a date stamped on these things. Stock has been cut down and refinished.
Carcano's require a special enbloc clip which are getting hard to find. |

Looks like you have a sporterized long rifle.
Carcano rifles can shoot better than they look. If you need enbloc clips try here; http://www.buffaloarms.com/browse.cfm/4,7475.html |
