I assume it’s a 12 ? What kinda money are they asking ? Seems to me one of their hammer guns in the 60’s was named “Brescia” , well that is if my memories correct lols !

Externally looks nice.
Is it a rifle or shotgun?

I have had two Italian hammer guns, one cheap one expensive, both were good shooters and well made. My current hammer gun is a Toz66 built in the USSR
The Italian guns were much better finished and the hammers didn't require eleven men to cock them. :D

I could be VERY wrong but for me that’s a bit strong . Personally I was thinking more in the $650-750 range , but again I could be very wrong !

Top lever is right of center, I'd say it hasn't seen much use. As for $ amount I couldn't venture a guess.

That's a steal, for one of the better quality SxS hammerguns available - I would suggest jumping on that puppy, and REALLY make your Christmas Merry !

I bought my first, a 20ga, last year - and couldn't be happier.

Somewhere in the past, prolly in the early sixties, I read about them in Shooters Bible . I was about 12 years old and slobbering all over that book every year wishing, hoping, someday I could get some of the stuff shown in it. You might want to go to "Shotgun World" or other websites that deal with doubles and ask. My Gut is telling Me in todays world $950.00 is a steal............

By comparison, a new CZ Hammer Classic costs more than that............

( Ask me how I know... )

I like it, for what it's worth; especially the engraving. Changeable chokes would be a plus, too.

Gunbroker has 2 listed, neither is a hammer gun. The 12 ga is listed at more than a grand. The 28 ga is almost 3 grand. I'd say it's a good deal for 950
