Christchurch City, Canterbury,

typical wonder whats brought this on.
they look a nice piece.
if its only 2 3/4 inch your chances of getting that size steel are way worse than the 3 inch and that not fn easy.
perhaps they know sonething f&g aint announced yet but no the field 12 has dropped by the same to.

guncity acquired a lot of Rizzini shotguns in a deal.they have been selling them at very good prices compared to the UK or USA. although these are new guns, my guess is they were manufactured 5-6 years ago,hence the need to shift them on.personally i like the rizzini's,i must do as i have bought 3 of them in the sub gauges from GC. they are well made. i would check the gun over making sure the serial numbers match on the parts perhaps do i little research on date of manufacture etc. this can all help if you want to haggle on price.

This is worth a read

so you,d be the man to ask then.
how are they functionaly are the mobile chokes well made and and do the mike out close to spec??

the 16 ga i bought had fixed chokes,1/4 and mod.the 20ga and 28ga are removable.i don't tend to alter my chokes much and i tend to shoot these chokes.i have patterned these chokes on 7.5, and 6 shot,they gave great patterns.i have not miked them.the round body EL is a very nice style of gun,but the Arum is practically the same,just not as good on the wood,but for the price still excellent,and not as much hand finishing as the Artemis(Deluxe) models.they compare favourably with the Beretta's,and have more bling for your buck.
