Wingshooting is equal parts mechanics and voodoo; it’s one of the shooting arts that never really came naturally to me. But, I do enjoy hunting ruffed grouse and pheasants, and a fine shotgun. The Fausti Class LX in 28 gauge is not your average shotgun.

Italian Roundbody SxS 28ga – $1,450 – FAIR Shotguns SHOT Show 2017
Published: February 2, 2017 { 4 comments }This gun is worth checking into if you have always wanted a small gauge field grade dove shotgun, and a traditional side by side fits the bill. The belly is really elegant and tiny, and the stock and wrist seem to be finished as well and as nice a wood grain as you’ll find in any Italian shotgun under $5,000. At $1,400, it’s a steal, and I think it’s because they are trying to get the FAIR name out there.

And Franchi has an update of their Instinct line. The Catalyst is designed for women, but it may be the ideal 12 gauge for many smaller framed shooters. Check out our SHOT Show coverage.
