Seems like some of the Rizzini 16s are/were made on their own frame size, while others are made on a 12 ga frame? Anybody know the story? |

The very first imported B. Rizzini guns were on a 12 ga. frame. That period did not last long and they soon had their own frame. I talked to them last year about a 30" bbl. gun and was told it would take 6 months to a year. They have to switch out the manufacturing line to do it. William Larking Moore I believe is the oldest importer of B. Rizzini guns in the US and know they have been frustrated over the years with failure to deliver by Bautista (the B. in B. Rizzini) He has had a lot of marketing problems in the past and managed to upset most distributors one way or another. Rich Cole of Cole guns being a prime example. Be nice if they finally get it together and deliver on promises. And offer a reasonably priced 16 on its own frame. For more money you can get one. When is always the question.
2 of his nephews left his company years ago and started Caesar Guerini and they do everything right that Bautista seems to fail on. Wish they offered a 16 ga...
Edit: I own 2 B. Rizzini guns and they are great guns IMO. |

Neither do I Dale, unless their mine. It's tough to walk around like that. Chafes my dingus.
Turd as a description just struck me funny. Never seen it applied to a gun. Works though.
I'm posting all this in lighthearted fun(see emoticons) I thought you'd get it. You ain't been into that bottle of old fermented prune juice again have you?
And as far as me and a mental breakdown, that boat's already sailed. |

We agree on one thing: your boat has already sailed.

Mike, that depends on your definition of "Joy".

Ah yes, I am guessing that it would be the "joy" of wadded undies...en masse. |
