Welcome to the forum fill-up.

To be honest with you I've never heard of a Fausti.Not knowing anything about it I would steer away from it.Are parts available for it?. Who imports it?I'm sure it a cheaply made shotgun.You didn't say what it is. A pump,semi auto, single shot O/U or SxS?I would say you'd be better off buying a shotgun that has been proven and not some off the wall brand.
That's just my opinion and you can take it for that......

If you are talking about a Fauti Traditions then you have a good gun. They make some nice over/under guns. They also have some beautiful engravings on the side of some models.

I own two Fausti Traditions O/U shotguns. One in 12 ga and one in 410. The 12 ga has been very reliable/dependable. You can order parts from the US distributor. I ordered an extra set of chokes for the 12 ga. I use the 12 ga for duck hunting and it has seen a lot of hard knocks in boats and tank blinds in Arkansas. I have had no problems. I just got the 410 and I love it. It is M/F choke and has almost no recoil. It shots very good patterns. It should be great for squirrels and dove.
