Description:
PRICE REDUCED!!!! Made in 1969, this 12 ga gun has 2-3/4″ Chambers. 30″ Bohler Super Blitz bbls fitted with fine, matted, ventilated rib, are engraved “ARMI FABBRI BRESCIA” and “MADE IN ITALY” on top left. Bbl flats are stamped with 1969 Italian nitro proofs for 2-3/4″ chambers. Bbls are fitted with interchangeable choke tubes (full set included). Low profile, coin finished, OU action features non-automatic safety, engraved line tumbler end cocking indicators, vented breechface, hand detachable sidelocks, and single non-selective trigger. Action is engraved with near full coverage exceptionally well rendered large sprays of roses, other flowers, foliage, and ribbons, all in a small scroll engraved background. “ARMI FABBRI BRESCIA” is in folded ribbon on bottom of action. This very fine engraving is signed “F. Iora” on trigger plate. (Ferruccio Iora. This noted engraver’s “smoke” of the engraving pattern used on this gun, is illustrated as figure 110 in MODERN FIREARMS ENGRAVINGS by Mario Abbiatico.) Very fine, well marbled, and nicely fiddle figured European walnut full pistol grip buttstock measures 14-1/4″ over black open-sided Fabbri marked pad. 2-Point pattern checkering wraps over top of grip. A vacant gold oval is on toe line. Matching slightly widened forend has Anson type release, and inlet gold pigeon toward rear.

CONDITION: Very fine, as partially refinished. Bbls retain over 95% of a very well done re-black, with engraving slightly softened. Coin finish of action is excellent.

These are considered by many to be the finest shotguns ever made. Many more photos available. Asking $47,500 shipped to your FFL.
