Fabarm shotguns
Fabarm shotguns
Anyone have any experience with them? Ive been thinking of trying out one of their lefty models.
Re: Fabarm shotguns
I owned and shot an XLR5 for a year. No issues with it shot and cycled most ammo. Never broke down.
Re: Fabarm shotguns
What kind of Fabarm are you looking at? They're an old Italian firm that makes many different guns. I've got a Fabarm Classic Lion, SxS, 30", DT. The vaunted Tribore barrel and 4 underlugs (interesting) really do reduce recoil. Bought it for a SxS clays gun. Good choice. I should shoot it more!magspa wrote:Anyone have any experience with them?

You can find reviews of whichever Fabarm you're looking at on the net. However, if you're looking at SxS Classic Lion, I will certainly post more.
Re: Fabarm shotguns
Im looking at their over/unders. Mainly because they offer them with cast for lefties and their prices seem reasonable.
Re: Fabarm shotguns
I am looking at a Fabarms L4S in 12 gauge. Anyone shoot one of these? They are at the top of my price range along with a Browning and Benelli. Any preference?
Re: Fabarm shotguns
I purchased an L4S Sporting in June of 2017, very nice shotgun. Well built and cycles everything I put through it.I am looking at a Fabarms L4S in 12 gauge. Anyone shoot one of these? They are at the top of my price range along with a Browning and Benelli. Any preference?

Re: Fabarm shotguns
Mags, their ELOS guns are a very nice O/U.
Re: Fabarm shotguns
Fabarm is an Italian company in Brescia, in the vicinity of Beretta and most other Italian gunmakers. They only make shotguns: SxS, O/U, pump and auto. They used to be distributed by H&K, but I hear they've gone over to SIG now.
I don't know what type of gun your friend has, but last April I bought a left-handed H-368 autoloader new for $550. I shot a few boxes of 3.5 dram loads to break it in, and it's functioned flawlessly over 1,000 times since. Synthetic stock with swivel studs, action's a copy of the Rem 1100, piston's an improvement on Beretta's. Excellent fit and finish all around. The cylinder wall's a bit thin, so be careful not to bang it hard when disassembled. That's my only caveat. Best money I ever spent on a gun.
