    Default 58 caliber FIE
    A local classified has a 58 caliber FIE unfired for sale. It is an Italian gun. I think I saw one time that FIE stood for Firearms Importers and Exporters. Anybody have any info on this gun? He is asking only $155.

    I have a FIE revolver in .357. It is a decent gun. Never seen a FIE ML though.

    Most Italian guns are good quality, but I do not have an FIE. I would examine the rifle close and check the trigger pull, safety, stock for stress cracks, and remember, if it breaks you probably will not get any service or parts.

    You missed a real bargain Flounder. It's almost a certainty that Zouave was made in the Zoli factory.
