Description:
This shotgun is a recent manufacture and on the bottom is the Cortona Prestige marking. Also on the bottom is "Marcheno made in Italy". On the bbl is marked "Kalispell-Cusick, WA-Made in Italy". What does all this mean? I don't rightly know. Evidently made in Italy. Supposedly they were made by Rizzini for the Kalispell Indian Tribe of Idaho. This is a beautiful shotgun in "as new" condition. This a single select trigger o/u with bird and dog scenes in gold adorning the frame and trigger guard. The wood is beautiful European or English Walnut with fine figure. Another unique item is the buttplate which is made of wood and is affixed to the gun with a contrast in wood which is really appealing. On the buttplate is also the Cortona marking. Very graceful lines to this shotgun that only a 28 ga can accomplish. Nice light easy swinging shotgun that would be just perfect for upland birds. Also it has removable chokes. A high quality o/u.
