The Fausti Class and Class SLX over-and-under shotguns are elegant and very similar in their technical features, differing for the presence of the long side plates in the SLX model.
The shotguns are available in two different finishes, with a steel action in coin or color case versions, both enriched by gold wild game flights on the surfaces of the side plates and on the receiver bottom. Partridges in flight alternate with a woodcock next to the model name.
The over-and-unders are available in 12 - 16 - 20 - 28 gauge and- .410 bore, and all are made with receivers scaled to gauge, with the obvious technical as well aesthetic quallities of precision and harmony of form that we all know.
Barrels with a 3"/76mm magnum chamber, with the exception of the 16-gauge with a 70-mm chamber, are available in varying lengths: 63.5 cm and 68 cm, which are more suitable for walked-up hunts – the first length, we could say, is also ideal for hunting in the woods – or 71 cm and 76 cm for shooting at longer distances in hide hunting or for those who also like driven hunts.
The barrels can be fitted with fixed chokes or internal and interchangeable chokes depending on the gauge and length. These are the available chokes: a kit of 5 interchangeable chokes for 12-, 16-, 20-, 28-ga with 68-, 71-, 76-cm barrel lengths – Fixed cyl/3 stars for12-, 16-, 20-ga with a barrel length of 63.5 cm – Fixed for .410 in all barrel lengths.
The trigger is single selective and shell ejection is automatic. The locking system is the patented Fausti Four Locks with four locking points, two on the barrels and two on the receiver, for greater safety, accuracy and durability of the gun. The Prince of Wales stock of the Class and Class SLX over-and-unders, just like the English fore-end, are made from selected walnut wood and oil finished. Like all Fausti shotguns, these over-and-unders come in a case and with a certified test target.
