Back in April, I posted that I had a fAIR Rizzini Jubilee Prestige on the way. Due to some unforeseen medical issues I couldn't post pictures (such as they are) until now.
She has 28" bls and weights in at 6lbs 3 oz (actual) very nice to the shoulder.

Where did you order it from? Was it an easy process? Would love to have a 30" barrel version, and you have me thinking really hard about pulling the trigger. |

Bought it in Canada from bilzor in Alberta. Available in the USA from The italian Firearms Group http://www.italianfirearmsgroup.com/
Great service from them -- Couldn't get an extra IC choke on this side of the border but they shipped one and I hat it in hand 3 days later
The little gun shoots great for me -- did super well at skeet on sunday with two IC chokes. |

Nice gun! I recently bought a similar one from John Boyd at Classic Arms in Houston. I also really like mine, and have been shooting it fairly well at skeet and sporting clays lately. I can't wait to hunt with it this fall. The gold game scenes are a little tacky on mine, but it handles like a champ.

How are you making out with your new FAIR taratanga gold? Does it shoot as good as it looks? |
