Perazzi is a manufacturer of precision shotguns from Brescia, Italy.[1] The company sells hunting and sporting models of shotguns noted for their removable trigger groups, high quality, and high prices (US$7,500–440,000). Its founder is Daniele Perazzi, and his family owns and operates it.
The Perazzi factory is in Botticino near Brescia, Italy. The guns are made to order and the customer can visit the factory to select options and receive a custom gun fit. This is called "The Perazzi Experience".[2] The process of purchasing a shotgun normally begins with the specification of all the metalwork first. Custom options include the gauge of the shotgun, the blank and grade of wood for the stock and forearm, barrel length and diameter, rib height and width, the trigger group, and receiver engraving. The guns can also be engraved and there are different levels of engraving quality and also side plates available. A "test gun" is used to determine the correct fit and measurements for the shotgun to be made for the customer. In the Perazzi factory there is a public viewing area of shotgun production. Customers also have the option of visiting the nearby family owned cafe/restaurant for homemade pasta and wine while their shotgun is being made.
