12g Over and Under Boxlock Side plated Double Trigger Ejector Shotgun from Fias / Sabatti.
Apparently one and the same, once trading under the Fias name but now Sabatti. This is detailed with both so take your pick!
It is a nice looking gun and handles well. YES, a double trigger. VERY HANDY if you shoot a traditional Side by Side but also want a heavier gun for clays etc. It is often difficult to swap between a single and double trigger. I KNOW I struggle forgetting to drop back to the left , second trigger on a side by side.
At 7lbs 7oz (3.38Kg) this has the weight to absorb heavier shells. They can be uncomfortable to shoot through a lighter, traditional Side by side game gun.
27 ¾” (705mm) barrels are fixed choke at ¾ and full with a ¼” (6mm) game rib. Chambers are 2 ¾” and the original sling swivel attachment are still in place too! The profuse engraving to the side plates and the rest of the action is quite nice. A LOT better than usually found on this level of gun.
A reasonably patterned straight grained stock at 14 5/8” (372mm). Finished off with the original makers hard butt plate. Barrels are stamped up FABRIKA ITALIANA ARMI-SABATTI-GARDONE V.T. ACC BREDA MOLIBDENUM STEEL.
The sling attachment is also screwed into the rib and easily removed. A nice touch, as is the browned finish to triggers. It sports a semi beavertail forend. All in all this gun has a few nice little features that just lifts it above the ‘bog standard’. They all come together to make it a very nice gun for this kind of money.
Manual safety. A lot of shotgun for not a lot of money.
