I wa looking at a Ceasar Guerini (sp) o/u on the weekend and was quite impressed by it.
I love the colour case hardened receiver and they seem to be very well made with very nice wood but I have had no experience with these guns.
Does anyone shoot one and are they worth the rather high price they command.

Thanks
 
i saw one this weekend and was quite impressed.... the only thing i didn't like about it was the fact that it had a wood butt and not actually pad... the wood and the coloured receiver (bronze ish) was done very nice....

i didn't ask for the price, but i understood that their price was supposed to be very competitive....
 
Had the privilege of messing about with a 34" Summit Sporter.
At around $ 3,000, it's a lot of gun for the money. Colour case hardened. a bit of engraving, pretty Circassian walnut, schnabel forend, soft rubber recoil pad ... what's not to like.

A little less than the cost of a Browning 525 and a lot less than a Berreta 682 Gold E . Every bit as shootable as both.



Reportedly, these guys started out with Rizzini - they obviously learned something along the way !
 
Guerrini

The Guirini's are actually cousins that worked for Rizzini. The guns (Sporting)we see in NA, were designed by West Lang of Guirrini USA. The others in Canada were spec from FN Sports, the importer. One of the locals thought it was great to have a solid buttplate. They have all the bells and whistles at a fair price. Do they stand up? One local high volume shooter had to have the action tigntened after 2 seasons. Everyone else is very happy. It is NOT anywhere close to a Beretta 682, nor is the price. They make a great 28 in 30 inch. I have shot it and liked the dynamics. It should stand up very well.

Best regards,
Henry:cool:

There are a few guys at our club who own them and they seem pretty happy. One is a member here and maybe we can convince him to offer his opnions (C'mon Jeff. Do a little review of your 20 gauge. ;) ).

They are not for lefthanders however. Every one I've seen has had a lot of right hand cast. Almost too much in one gun and I like a lot of cast.

I was checking out a 32" two-barrel 20 and 28 gauge set recently. Very nice gun that fit me and felt great. If I didn't already have a 28 gauge o/u that I'm happy with I'd have bought the Guerini set on the spot.
 
Claybuster is right I am very happy with my 20 gauge. I also have a Beretta
682e gold. Any target I can hit just as hard with both guns. The Ceasar Guerini comes with 8 factory chokes s, ic, c, lm, m, im, lf, f and is one of the
best looking shotguns availible today. It is very well balanced and swings much quicker than my Beretta. My only complaint mechanicaly was the action was very stiff to open when the gun was new. If you buy one use lots of lube.
I may be using it a little more in the near future as I dropped my Beretta last
night opening the back of my suv to put it away. If I can't massage the flat
spot on the end of my barrel out I my have to send it off to a gun smith.
I know you all feal my pain.
Ceasar also makes some very attractive autoloaders.
I know about 6 other people at the club with Guarinis and they like theirs as
much as I like mine. They do have a lot of right hand cast and the length of
pull is about an inch longer than my Beretta. Although it is easier to make a stock shorter than longer. That's my 2 cnets hope it helps

I do feel your pain. Nice gun that Beretta. Something similar happened to a friend of mine during the hunting season. A gunsmith fixed the problem and it's good as new.
 
Guerini

Starting this year in Canada left hand models are available in the Summit and Summit limited, I have yet to sell a Guerini that had an extreme right hand cast, so far no complaints of any sort from the users of these guns. David Henry.
 
Just to set the record straight on the above post "One local high volume shooter had to have the action tigntened after 2 seasons".

This local high Volume shooter is a personal friend of mine. When his gun was opened & resting on the hinge pin, the forearm was not applying enough pressure against the receiver. I was with him when the gunsmith changed a very small ($0.05) metal piece (size of your pinky nail) in the forearm assembly. At no time was the safety or integrity of the action/gun in question.
