Every detail is thought out, with many being unusual. There is almost nothing more beautiful, noble and valuable in the shotgun field. Famous Fabbri customers include Eric Clapton, former King Juan Carlos and Steven Spielberg. Only 10-12 pieces are delivered per year, and the waiting time is between 4-5 years including engraving.
