Very nice. These Auroras were made by B. Rizzini of Italy for import by SIG. The current B. Rizzini line of shotguns is extensive and they are now service by Cole Fine Guns & Gunsmithing should this one ever need service. Good luck with your sale, somebody is going to be a very happy new owner.

Yes, thanks, but there were (are?) four Rizzini brothers in Italy with their own separate shops. These guns IIRC came from Battista R’s shop in Bresica, Italy; it’s generally known for the higher end guns. Rizzini’s currently have a big following in the UK.

George, I may have to call you if it doesn’t sell first. I’m contemplating a .20 guard and shoot LH.
I still have the S&B 4x36 you sold me years ago on my slug gun.

Hey George....hope all is well. I drove by your place over the holidays. Long time no see. Hope all well.
This gun is as sweet as they come. I shoot 99% of my Yolanda with a 20g and recently got talked out of my O/U. This would be an awesome replacement for it. Hmmmmm.
Until I figure it out...GLWS,
Sean

BEAUTIFUL 20 gauge! I have 2 Rizzini made O/U a 410 L L BEAN thru SIG and a 12 gauge AURUM. My 410 is a little lighted in color with as much grain as your 20 gauge. I get comments on it every time I take it to the skeet field. Wish I was a little younger and I had room for it but I will have to downsize in the future. GLWS.
