Description: A unique collaboration between German and Italian fine gun making. According
to Famars factory, during late 1960s to late 1970s, Italian gun manufactures
often used receivers from other firms, such as this Merkel sidelock
ejectors. Famars began to produce their own receivers in 1975. This Merkel
based Plutone Extra Lusso was manufactured in 1974. Receiver and barrels
contain all Italian proofs. Engraving was done by Pietro Sabatti, an Italian
master engraver from Val Trompia. At a glance, the pattern seems to be fauna
scrolls. However, upon closer examinations, exquisite Neptune scenes with
dragons and swords bearing maidens emerged. Extremely fine checkering
appears to be at least 24 LPI. Previous owner's monograms are embedded on
top of stock. Mechanical and metal conditions are in excellent plus
condition. S-13 series Briley thin wall choke tubes was installed, adding
versatility for the discriminating shooter who wants to enjoy this fine O/U
afield.
