Il National Test Bench For Firearms has a new director. As is known, this is the "Technical controller" compliance of weapons and ammunition with technical and legal standards and a sort of "registry office" of all the weapons produced in Italy and a good part of those imported. The director appointed in the last few hours is Emanuele Paniz, a name that had been around for months anyway (since last summer to be precise).
Paniz left his post in the Carabinieri, the body in which he took care of the ballistic reports and dealt with several important cases as regards the crime news. The president of the National Test Bank, Aldo Rebecchi, spoke of him as a person of great value.
Paniz is an industry expert and was born in 1975 in Belluno. His comment on the appointment could only be positive, so much so that he declared himself honored to be the director of such an important institution.
