The Perazzi name goes hand in hand with excellence, with this shotgun being a fine example to that end. Built with blued steel barrels featuring a single brass bead sight on the matted flat vent rib, wavy line border around the upper chamber area, standard factory markings, Italian proof marks dated 2000, interchangeable chokes ("4"/"6" installed), and 3 inch chambers with automatic ejectors. The barrels are fitted to the coin finished triggerplate action with removable trigger group which displays beautifully executed scroll engraving surrounding a pair of red-legged partridge in flight on the left side, a single grey partridge taking flight from a branch on the right, and stag skull with a cross between its antlers making reference to Saint Hubertus, the Patron Saint of hunters on the underside. The engraving is signed to the right of the triggerplate "ZACCHI" for Perazzi Master Engraver Giuseppe Zacchi. The gun features a single gold trigger and a tang mounted manual safety with gold inlaid "S" safety indicator. The gun is fitted with a gorgeous highly figured and multi-point checkered English style forend with engraved forend iron as well as a pistol grip stock with a black rubber recoil pad. Includes a factory takedown case, snap caps, stock tool, and five extra choke tubes ("0", "2", "6", "8", and "10"). Barrel and stock measurements (U/O): bore diameter nine inches from the breech both proofed and measured at 15.9mm (.626 inches); minimum wall thickness .039/.036 inches; 1 3/8 inch drop at comb; 1 15/16 inch drop at heel; 14 1/4 inch length of pull; slight cast-off; weight 7 lbs. 2 oz.

Excellent, retaining 99% original blue and 98% original coin finishes, some minor handling evidence, and a few freckles of spotting on the left side of the action. The wood is very fine, showing a few minor dings and scratches as well as sharp checkering. Mechanically excellent. The case is very good. A great opportunity to own a fine shotgun from one of Italy's finest makers!
