Balilla; Italian gun for the youth
The magazine on early Grazian Balillas was made of a weak alloy that was easily damaged. By 1939, it was replaced by a steel magazine. |
The buttplate of the 1941 Grazian (left) is an exact copy of the regulation item. The bronze buttplate of this 1938 Grazian (right) has a significantly different profile. |
This 1941 Grazian’s receiver ring has no logo stamping. It’s not common for a Balilla to lack a logo. Note the hectometer markings on the rear sight. |
Except for their reduced size, the bayonet, bracket and front sight are virtually indistinguishable from that of the regulation service carbine. |

Wilson Combat’s Super Sniper
Wilson Combat’s new Super Sniper, chambered in .308 Winchester/7.62mm NATO, delivers the firepower and accuracy that long-range tactical engagements demand. Shown with a Leupold 4-12x40mm VX-R scope. |
Wilson Combat’s free-floating TRIM handguard allows shooters to mount accessory rails where needed, leaving the rest of the forend slim and lightweight. |
The author’s test Super Sniper came with a 20-inch, unfluted bull barrel with a 1-in-10-inch twist rate and a target-style reverse crown for consistency. |
The upper and lower receivers are given Wilson’s durable Armor-Tuff finish. Also note adjustable Super-Stoc and the “Starburst” texturing on the pistol grip. |
