Gordon R Posted April 27, 2014 Report Share Posted April 27, 2014 I have owned about ten different makes of auto, including Remington (the best handling), Beretta and others. The best engineered was an older Fabarm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

roadkill Posted April 27, 2014 Report Share Posted April 27, 2014 Can't remember the make of the auto fabarm I use to own but remember it kicking like a mule but was a lovely gun to shoot with. Regret selling it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
super sharp shooter Posted April 27, 2014 Report Share Posted April 27, 2014 Can't fault mine handles well,light, and cycles most cartridges. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mini ninja Posted April 30, 2014 Report Share Posted April 30, 2014 No complaints at all with the Fabarm Lion H368 I shoots. As above, it handles well and cycles everything I've put through it. Ethan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hawkeye Posted May 1, 2014 Report Share Posted May 1, 2014 Had a cammo one a few years ago i loved that gun till scaffy was cleaning it one day ( thats what mates are for ) and noticed all the action was covered in hair line fractures. I had it for about 2 years and had only put round about 5000 cartridges through it i took it bad to Gilsan sports in Richmond where i had bought it from. Simon sent it back to Fabarm within a few weeks i got a call from Simon to call in for another new gun or a complete refund took the money and bought a browning. I now use a Benelli and love it i think this is the one for me easy to clean thats the main thing for me.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

12boreblue Posted May 5, 2014 Report Share Posted May 5, 2014 I have a fabarm euro lion, only issue I had was it cycling the shorter cartridges, other than that, a very reliable gun and a pleasure to shoot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Al Posted May 5, 2014 Report Share Posted May 5, 2014 (edited) I had a Euro 3 about 15 years ago and had to replace 2 parts. I don't know the technical name for the parts but I can describe them. The spring loaded Loading flap shore off at one connection. And the rail the bolt sits on snapped. I was less than impressed an got rid. Both times I got parts direct from Viking Arms. Edit to say that I bought the gun new. Edited May 5, 2014 by Big Al Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
