Default Italian over & under

Any one have any first hand info on an italian shotgun called traditions and made by a company called Fausti? The gun is a over&under in 12 ga.
With 28' barrel. Fit and finish are very good and sells for 650.
Any input will be welcome.
Thanks kb9wsq.

I cant help you as far as the brand but if I can buy any over/ under for $650.00 I would snatch it in a heart beat. Providing its in good condition.

Sounds like a newer gun. What are the barrels choked? Know where you can get a 410 Fausti o/u for the same money. You could start an Italian Family.

Hold the press. Dug up more info on the Fausti. The field grade 3 model w/ selective gold trigger may be worth up to $1200.

Walmart sells them and can also special order them for $498 for the hunter model. Looks like a real deal on an italian O/U.

kb9wsq, have you bought the traditions O/U yet? I was just wondering on how it performs. The manufacturer is Fausti Stefano from Italy. I do recall his name (owner) when speaking of high-end shotguns, I just don't remember who he was associated with.

webpage: www.faustistefanoarms.com

Other shotguns around that price range I've looked at are the Silma from spain, and the Verona from Italy. Alot of debates as to Silma vs. Verona.
