Does any one have any familiarity with the Fausti boutique line our any comments they wish to share. The DEA SL in 16 with 27" barrels double triggers caught my eye. I have handled the 32 gauge and it was very nice.

Yes, I have handled the Faustis. It's amazing what an old man can get away with. Oh, you mean the guns. No, haven't handled those.

Bill, They would kill you faster than a gun. I've looked at their site a few times. One of these days, I'll get to their guns.

Sorry Eric, we got a little off track here....

I have never handled a Fausti gun.

I see there guns everyday . There was a time I would have liked one . But now I'd rather put the same amount in quality old US or English doubles . The first time I was at their importation center in Fredricksburg they had a really nice small frame 28 gauge that wasn't finished , but they'd carried it to the Dallas Safari Club show . Anyway that thing felt really nice , but since then I've changed my tune . About the only thing they make I'd really like to have is one of their O/U double rifles with a couple sets of rifle barrels and a set of 16 gauge shotgun barrels .

I met one of the Fausti sisters at the SHOT Show. Nice personality and attractive lady and she shoots too!

Mark, for certain, I would have made a fool of myself (I'm quite skilled at that) going "hominah hominah".
