* Lee Harvey Oswald would use an M91/38 fitted with a side mounted scope to assassinate U.S President John Kennedy in November, 1963.
* Not to be confused with {{doll name|Mosin-Nagant|RF|4}} M91/30 because of same similar designation.
* The rifle's in-game designation should be M38 instead of M91/38, as the M91/38 was the revision that would change the M38's caliber from 7.35x51 back to the earlier 6.5x52 cartridge. A possible explanation for this choice of designation is that the {{doll name|Beretta Model 38|SMG|2}} already goes by M38 in-game.
* In the United States, Carcanos have a poor reputation for inaccuracy. This is however neither rooted within inherent deficiencies with the design of the projectile itself, nor with the rifle. Rather, it pertains with improper reloads. The diameter of the projectile itself is .300, while the most commonly utilized projectile for reloads is sized .308. Overpressure is generated as a result of a .308 bullet being sent down a .300 bore, which negatively affects the accuracy of the rifle. The M1891 suffers the opposite issue, namely that the projectiles used on reloading are too small for the bore of the rifle, which in turn leads to inconsistent rifling engagement and therefore affects accuracy negatively.
***Later the Italian Army adopted 7.35×51mm spitzer-tip prime. Known as 'Humanitarian Rifle' because the development of the bullet, and not have any relation with inaccuracies of the weapon itself.
* Carcano M91/38's front sight post was drawn upside down.
*M91/38 appears in a Pinocchio costume with wooden legs and nose as the completion bonus for the Lilliput Forest [[Furniture]] set.
