FABARM Autumn Elite 20-Gauge: The 21st Century Side-by-Side
The problem with most production side-by-side shotguns is that they are relics of 50-year-old designs produced on machines just as old. The FABARM Autumn Elite breaks that mold, utilizing state-of-the-art CNC machining to hold tolerances up to .0001”. This is a double gun reimagined for the modern era—combining the soul of a classic upland piece with the unbreakable precision of 21st-century engineering.
Modern Engineering & Unrivaled Strength
- Four-Lug Locking System: Unlike standard designs, the Autumn Elite uses a robust four-lug system to create an incredibly strong lock-up between the monoblock and the action, ensuring long-term durability.
- Monolithic Action: The receiver is machined from a single steel forging for ultimate structural integrity, finished in a sleek Silver Nitride.
- High-Temp Solder Barrels: Built to withstand the rigors of heavy use, the barrels are joined with high-temperature solder to guarantee strength and reliability.
- Hardened Steel Fore-end Insert: To ensure the gun stays tight for a lifetime, the fore-end features a hardened steel insert where it contacts the barrel lug, allowing for precision adjustments if ever necessary.
Exquisite Elite Aesthetics
- Deluxe Turkish Walnut: The Elite model is stocked with upgraded, hand-oiled Deluxe Turkish Walnut, available in either a classic English stock with a splinter fore-end or a comfortable pistol grip with a semi-beavertail fore-end.
- Gold Game Inlays: The rounded action is adorned with deep Acanthus pattern scroll engraving, highlighted by elegant gold game bird scenes.
- Hand-Fitted Walnut Butt Plate: A sophisticated touch that ensures a smooth, snag-free mount when shooting in heavy field gear.
Ballistic Superiority
- TRIBORE HP™ Technology: FABARM’s tapered bore design increases pellet velocity and improves pattern density while simultaneously reducing felt recoil.
- INNER HP™ Choke System: Includes five long, hyperbolic screw-in chokes designed to maximize pattern performance.
- Swamped Rib: The barrels feature a classic "swamped" style rib with a textured, non-glare finish for an intuitive, traditional sight picture.
