Autumn

“Overall, it’s a beautiful, well-made, and well-finished gun, but where it really shines is when it’s in the hand. If you have ever heard a shotgun maniac describe a gun as “lively in the hand,” this would be one of those guns. Its balance is superb and center-mass, which makes it indeed feel as though it has some life in it. Upon shouldering the Autumn, not only did I find life, but I also found that magic I had all but given up looking for in a SxS for so long.”

“Taken as a whole, I find the Fabarm Autumn 20-gauge a classy, understated, elegant, upland bird gun and every bit the equal—or better—of America’s classics from the first half of the 20th century.”

“Fabarm didn’t launch the Autumn simply to play in the side-by-side market. This gun is well thought-out and beautifully appointed. Fit and finish are excellent, and material quality is on par with guns costing more. It’s a solidly built double gun that’s practical enough for field use without losing that special side-by-side magic. If you’re a double gun devotee or simply looking for an elegant new bird gun that’s as practical as it is pretty, the Autumn is worth a close look.”

“With the introduction of the Autumn, Fabarm is helping to fill a gaping hole in the shotgun market by bringing out an imminently satisfying double that’s affordable for most people.”

“They say good things come to those who wait. So when Italian firearms manufacturer Fabarm recently announced that, after 120 years in business, it had produced its first side-by-side shotgun for American hunters, wingshooters were understandably excited.”
