Perazzi makes some strikingly beautiful guns and some of the finest handling and shooting guns in the world, with this gun being an excellent example of the quality of work one expects to see when they hear the name Perazzi. The gun is built with blued steel barrels featuring a green fiber optic front sight (mid-bead absent) on the added raised vent rib, standard factory markings, light engraving around the breech, 2009 dated Italian proof marks on the flats, Briley choke tubes (improved modified/full installed), and 3 inch chambers with automatic ejectors. The barrels are fitted to the coin finished boxlock action which displays attractive scroll engraving surrounding three game scenes depicting a pigeon in flight on the left, a pointing setter on the underside, and a chukar on the right all cut in fine detail. The engraving is signed on the triggerplate "Bottega C. Giovanelli" for the famous firm. The gun features a single selective trigger, and a tang mounted manual safety. The gun is fitted with a beautifully figured and multi-point checkered Schnabel tip forend with engraved fittings as well as a pistol grip stock with a Kick-eez recoil pad. Included with the gun is a second set of matching numbered 28 inch barrels being used as a carrier set for the included .410 bore, 28 gauge, and 20 gauge full length insert tubes. Also included is an aluminum Americase that holds the entire set along with installation tools and twelve extra 12 gauge chokes, and four for each of the 20 gauge, 28 gauge, and .410 bore inserts. Barrel and stock measurements (U/O): bore diameter nine inches from the breech both measured 18.6mm (.732 inches) and measured .734/.732 inches; minimum wall thickness .056/.056 inches; 1 13/16 inch drop at comb; 1 14/16 inch drop at heel; 14 3/16 inch length of pull; cast-off; weight 9 lbs. 5 oz.

Excellent, retaining 99% original blue and coin finishes with minor handling evidence and some minor dried grease under the toplever. The wood is very good with a few scratches, some dings at the toe, and mostly crisp checkering. Mechanically excellent. The extra barrel set is also excellent. A great opportunity to own a fine Italian gun!
