Just curious here, but does anyone know anything about the 16 ga Perazzi's made a while back. There's a used 28" IC/M MX5 for sale at Paciific Sporting Arms for $4k. I think someone told me they were a pretty heavy gun...... |

The Perazzi 16 tips the scale at over 7 pounds. Giacomo states they were "put together with spare parts" He also states that there are good ones and bad ones. If you get a lemon Giacomo told me I would be sending him the gun for more repairs than the gun is worth.
Giacomo's final consensus was to stay away from the MX5 16 gauge. |

I'd buy that opinion every time. There isn't a soul alive who knows more about the Perazzi than Signore G. Arraghini. He's my go to guy for service on my trap guns. None better-period!! |
