I took a kook at a semi auto and o/u today.
Nice guns, anyone own one?

Re: Fabarms shotguns - 11/16/16
I owned a Fabarms Classic Lion, SxS, imported by H-K.
Very nice, well made gun. I sold it for 2 reasons: the gun has a palm swell on the right side of the grip, and I could never warm up to it;
2nd reason was I had an ejector stop working and I called H-K, the importer, about returning it to them for repair. I was told they do not warranty the gun. I said you are mistaken, the Owners Manual says H-K warranty's the gun for life. Long story short, I went up the 'food chain' at H-K to a Supervisor, and they declined to warranty. The best they would do is transfer me to a guy who could walk me through the repair.
I was, and still am, really PO'd at H-K.
The gun itself was a good gun, well made.

I have an L4S and it is my favorite of the several shotguns I own. The issue of FABARM shotguns not being serviced no longer exists since FABARM is now owned by Caesar Guerini.
It's the wood stocked shotgun on the left.![[Linked Image]](http://i1246.photobucket.com/albums/gg601/cdbeagle/IMG_1442.jpg)

I had a 12ga. Classic Lion I sxs. It was a beauty w/ 30" barrels, DT, extrawood. I foolishly traded it off.
Re: Fabarms shotguns - 01/07/17
I bought the camo waterfowl model at Orvis in Manchester Vt.
So far so good, I have taken 6 geese so far.

I own a classic Lion 12 Ga. SS and love it. I shoot it better than most other guns I own. 7/8 oz loads are real sweet. My only concern is what I will do if it ever breaks.
