The MAB 18/30 had never been adopted by the Italian Army. It had been conceived for the Police, and had been adopted by the State Forestry Department.

@silverjohn6037 It's a semiauto only carbine. Forgotten Weapons has a nice video about the MAB 18/30

9mm Glisenti with the velocity of 9mm Parabellum is 9mm Parabellum. But there are actually two different loads for 9mm Glisenti. The M910, that's the load of the Glisenti 1910 pistol, and the M915, that's the hotter load made specifically or the Villar Perosa machinegun. The M915 is just about 10% less powerful than a standard 9mm Para (The ones made in the US during the war for the Italian Army were loaded with 4 grains Bullseye), and all the weapons in 9mm Glisenti made after WWI (as the MAB18/30 and the Beretta 1923 pistol), due to the possibility of easy mistakes, were able to shoot safely the M915 load.
