About the Rizzini S2000
The Rizzini S2000 is an Italian over/under break-action sporting shotgun built by Battista Rizzini of Marcheno, Italy. Offered in 12, 20, 28 gauge and .410 bore, it pairs a low-profile steel sporting frame and sideplates with deep hand-chased scroll engraving by Bottega C. Giovanelli, a single selective trigger, ventilated-rib chrome-lined barrels and a Grade 2.5 Turkish walnut stock with 26 lines-per-inch checkering. It is designed to handle equally well on the sporting-clays range and in the driven-game field.
The S2000's action and sideplates are engraved by hand at the Bottega C. Giovanelli workshop, a craft studio in Italy's Gardone Val Trompia gunmaking district, so no two receivers carry exactly identical scrollwork.
