Verona LX1001 .308
#259117 - 17/01/15 03:18 PM

I'm more of a vintage double guy but have been interested in getting a modern double shooter, preferably in a easy-to-find and mild calibre. I saw someone locally selling a .308 double rifle and I went ahead and got the thing.

It's a Verona LX1001 O/U .308 with 20 gauge barrel set as well. I understand that it was made by F.A.I.R. in Italy.

I did go out on a limb here since this is not a maker that I know. I'm hoping to hear from anyone who knows more about them. I'm really hoping mine left the factory properly regulated and isn't just an ornate boat anchor/20 ga combo.

I like the calibre. Any idea what it is regulated for?

Used to be a dealer in Nashville that imported the F.A.I.R. shotguns. They appeared to be well built and finished SxS Italian guns.

Unfortunately I don't have anything indicating what it's regulated for. Looks like I'll have to do some experimenting.

Rigby270 that link is some guy's fantasy role playing game statistics list.
No foot in reality there at all, expressed or implied.
