Some years ago I bought an Amadeo Rossi SxS on a whim, primarily for duck hunting. 12 gauge, 28" bbls. It had nice bluing finish and a decent looking PG stock with no checkering and a gloss finish. Extractors and double triggers, 3" chambers, no recoil pad, surprisingly good balance. I have no idea of the vintage. I shot it as well as any SxS I have ever shot at waterfowl. Wasn't overly heavy, but didn't kill me with recoil with heavy clothes on. But, the trigger guard - which was thin and had a fairly sharp edge - absolutely killed my middle finger. I tried everything, several different homemade pads. Tying a 1/8" thick stiff leather piece to the rear of the trigger guard and taping some heavy closed cell foam to my finger made it livable, but barely so. I have occasionally gotten bumped with other guns, because I do not tend to hold a gun tightly, but nothing like that ever happened with any other gun. I toyed with the idea of getting it restocked, but I finally gave up and sold it to my buddy, who still shoots it sometimes. When I took it down for cleaning the internals looked pretty decent.
