Why a Fausti DEA?

[JIMMY 808]

Yeah, you don’t hunt do you....

Dilly I get to hunt upland 2 months a year straight pretty much, try to hunt a different state in the US every year run a bunch of Pointers, Setters, Griffins. Own more dogs currently then most have in a life time and chase the odd hound around in the winter for cats. Shot a nice colored bear on a spot stalk in the mountains 30min from my house two days ago.



I liked the picture was all...

So, hummm back to the Fausti.
Don't see many if any come up for sale used?
Wonder if a DEA would hold it's value?
Or would it drop off steep from the new retail price?

There was one on the ee a while back, can't remember if it was a DEA or not but the price was in the 5 figure range. That's one of the very few that I've seen advertised for sale in the last few years, and I'd think that interested parties for a gun like that would be few!

Sorry, I thought you were suggesting the birds depicted in the pictures were ruffed grouse.

On the topic of the Fausti guns, I handled a DEA at an outdoor show and it was really nice. Appeared to have the same build quality and feel as other Italian SxS guns.
