I played 3 battles for the British and noticed that the Italians have two powerful rifles - the Armaguerra and the Mannlicher, a 6-round self-loading rifle and a rifle with a fast rate of fire.
To make the British able to resist, give some of the soldiers Ross rifles.
I’m too lazy to check elsewhere but Wikipedia says so
Captured on the Italian Front and received as war reparations. [ 21 ] By 1937, over 200,000 M.95s in the original caliber were stockpiled in Italian East Africa . [ 22 ] They were predominantly used by colonial troops. They are often marked AOI for Africa Orientale Italiana. Rifles captured by the British were sent to India as trainers. [ 23 ]
Mate, Lee Enflield is better than the manlicher. Its only slightly slower by a tiny bit, but has more bullits so you don’t have to reload as much. Also, the ross and the Lee are equally fast (both 60, upgraded 69), so it does not even matter. Also, Armaguara is complete shit and honestly makes the Italian presets worse if anything …
