Hello Friends,
With the new year I have updated my web site. There are some new topics and I guess the presentation is better.
Have a look and let me know if you enjoy it:

Bonjour Christian,
The book is still in Italian with the caption translated into English.
I am working, in cooperation with some friends, in a new book completely in English.

Thank you,
Mauro

Mauro,
Be sure to use TWO translators: one native English speaker and one native Italian speaker, preferably both gun people so they know the terminology. Each translator should check the work of the other and a translation should only be considered correct if they both agree on the translation.

This is the only way correct translations can be done. Otherwise you get a horrible mess.

Thank you David for the suggestion.
For sure the new book will be in English but I don't know if it will be in Italian as well. In any case, it will be double-checked by English people expert in the gun field.

Have fun.
Mauro

Mauro,

I think you misunderstood. Translating from just ONE language to the other, you need native speakers of BOTH languages. This is the only way to correctly translate the MEANING and not just the words.

Hi David,
I got your point, I can tell you that this is my concern as well.
I have really appreciated your suggestion and I am working on this direction.
Have fun,
Mauro
