Key Features
Compact Frame Design — WHY IT MATTERS: The scaled-down receiver and 14½” length of pull reduce reach and weight, making mounting and swinging more natural for shooters with shorter arms or smaller hands.
30″ Gloss Blued Vent-Rib Barrel — WHY IT MATTERS: A longer barrel provides a smooth, controlled swing for sporting clays and waterfowl, while the ventilated rib and front bead sight deliver a clear sight picture.
Single Selective Trigger & Thumb Safety — WHY IT MATTERS: Easily switch barrel order (top or bottom first) with the tang-mounted selector, and the thumb safety offers fast, positive engagement without fumbling.
Turkish Walnut Pistol-Grip Stock — WHY IT MATTERS: The fixed pistol grip offers a secure, repeatable hand position, and the oil-finished walnut absorbs recoil while adding classic looks.
Coin-Anodized Silver Engraved Receiver — WHY IT MATTERS: The corrosion-resistant finish and hand-cut engraving elevate the gun’s aesthetic while protecting the action from moisture and wear.
Who It’s For
This shotgun is built for women shooters — whether you’re breaking clays at the club, hunting pheasants over dogs, or stepping into competitive sporting clays. The compact stock and lighter frame make it a strong choice for smaller-statured shooters who find standard 12-gauge O/Us too long or heavy. It also suits left-handed shooters thanks to the reversible thumb safety (noted in the manual).
Pros & Cons
Pro: Genuine compact dimensions — not just a shortened stock — improve pointability and reduce fatigue over a round of 100 birds.
Pro: Italian craftsmanship with hand-fitting; the action is smooth right out of the box.
Con: The fixed pistol grip limits adjustability compared to a Monte Carlo or adjustable comb; shooters needing a higher comb may require a gunsmith fitting.
