Italian over & under

kb9wsq · 11-08-2004, 08:01 PM

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.

Its a FAusti O/U imported by Traditions Inc..same people that brought you the traditions muzzleloader. They are new guns

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.

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.
