F.lli Bertuzzi BEST 20ga

Description:
An elegant example of traditional fine-gun craftsmanship, this F.lli Bertuzzi BEST 20 Gauge combines graceful handling characteristics with refined appointments and classic side-by-side styling. Built in a lightweight, well-balanced configuration, it is exceptionally suited to upland hunting, where quick mounting and effortless movement are essential.
The 26½-inch double barrels feature a deep black finish that contrasts beautifully with the bright-finished, finely engraved action. Chambered for 3-inch 20-gauge shells, the barrels are regulated with a Cylinder right barrel and Improved Cylinder left barrel. This open-choke combination is particularly desirable for close-flushing birds, offering a broad and forgiving pattern for quail, woodcock, grouse, and other traditional upland pursuits. The gun’s double-trigger arrangement provides immediate, instinctive selection of either barrel and choke.
As shown in the photographs, the shotgun is stocked in richly figured walnut with attractive color, flowing grain, and a warm hand-rubbed appearance. The traditional straight-hand English stock is paired with a slender, checkered splinter-style forearm, giving the gun the unmistakable proportions of a classic best-quality game gun. Fine checkering along the grip and forearm provides a secure hold while complementing the gun’s understated elegance. The stock measures 14¾ inches in length of pull and is finished with a dark recoil pad.
At only 6 pounds, this Bertuzzi carries comfortably during long days in the field and should remain lively between the hands. Its trim action, straight grip, short barrels, open chokes, and light overall weight create a highly responsive configuration designed for instinctive shooting over pointing dogs or on fast-moving birds at close to moderate range.
This F.lli Bertuzzi BEST is a distinguished sporting shotgun for the collector or dedicated upland hunter who appreciates traditional styling, fine engraving, exceptional walnut, and the handling qualities of a lightweight 20-gauge side-by-side. The current Kevin’s listing confirms the supplied configuration and specifications.
