Norrie Posted May 20, 2010 Report Share Posted May 20, 2010 Hiya, Just very recently got this as a gift from my mate...it was his second string gun...now my first..:-) Not had a kill with it yet..still not used to it...but loving the learning curve.. It's an E. Rizzini 12g O/U ejector, havent measured the barrels yet... it came with all the chokes, and the key in the original wallet..... What a crackin guy my mate is..

al4x Posted May 20, 2010 Report Share Posted May 20, 2010 nice gun but possibly not the best place to lean it unless you want to gain some dents in it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sprags Posted May 20, 2010 Report Share Posted May 20, 2010 I shot an E.Rizzini for years, sold it and bought a Beretta 687. Believe or not, I preferred the Rizzini, they are a cracking shotgun. You have a good friend there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
George1990 Posted May 20, 2010 Report Share Posted May 20, 2010 I've got one of them. Was well used when I bought it but it's still going strong. Never caused any problems, though the trigger could do with some tinkering on top barrel. I shoot really well with it too. He's pretty much handed you £300. Nice one!

gixer1 Posted May 20, 2010 Report Share Posted May 20, 2010 Don't suppose the serial number is 36582? looks suspiciusly like my old rizzini, which was a fantastic gun lovingly looked after - I sold it to a dealer up in aberdeenshire for a 20g and never got as comfortable with the 20, it had a 27 1/2" barrel and a palm swell and i struggled to find another gun with this (i have a berreta UL now and wish it has the swell) it was one of the best handling guns i've had due to it being so short. fantastic guns and hope it serves you as well as mine did, i'd buy it back in a shot!

Gixer Hi Guys, Thanks for all the great comments..I didnt realise the value of it.but he's a great mate, and is looking after a true "Newbie" to the sport.....he's also swapped me my old Vulcan for a remote lamp for my 4 x 4...:o ..and I def got the better bargain... Gixer, I dont think thats the serial number, sure it has 4's and 7's in it...cant look at it just now, as it's living near Weegieville at Davy's place....not got my licence yet. ( interview next Thursday) ..BUT, will check next time I'm out with it... If yer ever down this way, and want a wee try of it to reminice....PM me, and I'll get you a day out on the farm with it.. :o It will be out a few times a week soon enough...as one of my permissions is literally at my back door.. One thing we did notice tho', it's heavier than Davys Baikal....but, as I'm a fitter, stronger specimen, thats not a problem... NOT !!

tignme Posted May 21, 2010 Report Share Posted May 21, 2010 Norrie, It must be something to do with being Scottish because my mate who has no permission bought me a Browning Pheonix Semi auto for being a good friend(lol) nothing to do with free shooting for 15 yrs. Very welcome gift. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
