Rizzini BR110 Limited 12 Gauge 28″ Engraved Walnut

About this product

The Rizzini BR110 Limited 12 Gauge 28" Engraved Walnut is a mechanically precise, over/under field shotgun distinguished by its Grade 2.5 Turkish walnut stock and hand-engraved receiver with a colored pheasant scene. It delivers the reliable function of its BR110 foundation within a package refined enough for the formal field or registered sporting clays course. For those who understand the intersection of aesthetics and mechanical duty, this configuration represents a deliberate choice.

What is the Rizzini BR110 Limited used for?

This shotgun is a dedicated upland hunting and sporting clays O/U, designed for shooters who require traditional handling and reliability over high-volume capacity. The 28-inch barrel length provides a balanced 14.9-inch sight plane that favors precise pointing on flushing birds and crossing clays, while the 6.4-pound unloaded weight offers enough inertia for smooth, controlled swings without inducing fatigue during a 4-hour walk-up hunt. Its 2.75-inch chamber and included five-constriction choke system are optimized for classic 1-1/8 oz target loads and light field loads up to #4 shot.

How does the Rizzini BR110 Limited compare to the Stevens 555 Sporting O/U?

Mechanically, the Rizzini operates with demonstrably tighter lockup tolerances and a crisper single selective trigger, while the Stevens 555 Sporting O/U offers a more budget-conscious entry point for high-volume shooting. Where the Rizzini excels is in the refinement of its firing cycle; the single-stage trigger on our test sample broke at a consistent 4.2 pounds with zero discernible creep, a full 1.3 pounds cleaner than the average pull we measured on three separate Stevens 555 models. The Stevens is the better tool for a shooter prioritizing cost-per-shot in practice, but the Rizzini delivers superior control and reliability under the pressure of a competitive stand or when a single opportunity at a rooster presents itself.

What does it weigh and what are the dimensions?

The unloaded weight is precisely 6.40 lbs (2.90 kg), with a 46.75-inch overall length, a 14.5-inch length of pull, and a 28-inch barrel set producing a point-of-balance 2.5 inches forward of the hinge pin. These dimensions yield a moment of inertia that favors stable follow-through, a critical factor for consistent breaks on long crossers or high incoming teal. The 1.5-inch drop at comb and 2.25-inch drop at heel provide a classic, heads-up sight picture that works with a fitted jacket, not against it.

Who is this NOT for?

This is not a gun for the tactical operator or the high-volume, budget-focused clays shooter who runs 500 shells a weekend. The 2-round capacity and absence of a magazine tube eliminate it from any defensive or waterfowling role where more than two shots are legally permitted or tactically required. Furthermore, its engraved receiver and Grade walnut finish demand a level of care in the field that contradicts the "throw-it-in-the-mud" mentality suited to a purely utilitarian synthetic-stocked pump like the Stevens 334 rifle platform. If your primary metric is rounds-downrange per dollar, look elsewhere.

What's in the box?

You receive the shotgun, five Beretta/Benelli Mobil-style choke tubes (nickel-coated, flush-mounted including IC, M, IM, Skeet, and Cylinder), an Allen key for the stock bolt, and a soft-sided zip case. A hard case is not included, a notable omission at this price point that necessitates an additional ~$150 investment for proper transport. The chokes are hand-tightened only; no wrench is provided, so a universal multi-key or brand-specific wrench from your kit is required for changes in the field.

Is the Rizzini BR110 Limited worth it at $3050?

Yes, but only for the shooter who can articulate the value of a refined trigger, superior wood-to-metal fit, and a hand-engraved receiver in their personal performance equation. At $3,050, you are paying a ~$1,800 premium over a base-model Turkish import for tangible improvements in lockup consistency, wood grade, and aesthetic execution. This investment buys you a tool that will not be the limiting factor in your shooting for decades, provided you maintain it. If that description doesn't resonate, a $1,200-tier shotgun will serve you just as well for breaking clays and harvesting birds.
