Dunno about the Olympic events . But I DO know you see more than a couple at pigeon ring events . Heck I know a 90 year old lady that shoots a Fabbri she used it if memory serves twice to win the Kings Cup ladies division in Madrid .

Keep in mind that Ivo Fabbri and Daniele Perazzi worked together in the beginning but parted ways because Perazzi wanted to make competition guns and Fabbri wanted to make the finest quality guns. Both accomplished their goals.

One model of the Hudson Hornet was made for stock-car races and it won a few of them back in the day. Just one of many sports/race cars that had their brief moment in the sun. The great ones are talked about today as examples of benchmark design and engineering, the lesser ones not so much.
