Our Assessment: Perazzi sounds like a high end sports car, and in the gun world it is. They have long been a staple of just about any kind of shotgun sport you can name, famous for their craftsmanship, beauty and durability. As such, they command a high price, with some buyers going all the way to Italy to be measured in person so that their gun can be specially and exactly fit to them. That said, like a high-end sports car, it can be much more economical to buy used.
This example features two sets of barrels, factory Perazzi case, and beautiful finishes. This Perazzi is perfect for your next trip out to the clay field.
Good Luck Bidding
