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. |
