Fabarms `Paradox` guns have only the `choke` area of the barrel rifled. The story is pretty strange as only the `first` ( the right ) barrel has the `Paradox` rifling. The second barrel has conventional fixed or removable chokes.
Fabarm were marketing the system as offering a very wide, very even shot pattern from the rifled, cylinder choke ........ but the only barrel length offered is 24" which is very short for a sporting shotgun and suggests they intended it for use with slugs whilst retaining a useable - and sensible - shot pattern. Personally I reckon that a set of long removable chokes that included a pair of `Paradox` rifled `chokes` would be more practical, versatile and sensible.
I`m making enquiries about the prices of the Fabarm range generally so will report back when I have the information - don`t hold your breath though.
Incidentally, Fabarm guarantee that their new `Asper` O/U rifle will achieve a `maximum of 5cm ( 2" ) between the points of impact at a distance of 100m ( 109.36 yards ) ( with the suggested ammunition. )` That`s pretty impressive - a shame the rifle is only available in .30Blaser/8x55JRS/9.3x74R.
