Alessandro Abbiati Can you tell me why you abandoned the rubber bands in line with the gladius and why you did the auction guide instead of the tested "slider"

Natalia G. Bonfanti Alessandro Abbiati In recent years the vast demand of markets, especially export, has been for a rifle with circular headboard.
With this type of headboard we considered it necessary to equip the rifle with an auction guide to be very good precision. Precision and trim are indeed the best features of Gladius
Auction is how the word for spear translates on the on-line translators. The circular headboard must refer to the band anchor hole as the guns have used circular bands for years. Cord wishbones mean the bands can be tied on the gun, in fact they have to be as there is no band slot.
