Chuck, I should have asked where did you get yours to have such special wood?

Paul, while I almost always prefer a straight grip I have found that on small bores, 28 and .410 I think the pistol grip works to give you a better grip, otherwise if the stock is scaled to action it is too tiny. My hands are just slightly large

Horses for courses, as they say, but I am of the opposite opinion, Jeff. I prefer pistol grips for harder recoiling guns, such as the larger gauges. I find that I can get on the second target, or bird, faster with a heavier recoiling gauge when it has a pistol grip because I just have better control of the gun in recoil. With "slight" gauges that recoil little, like the .410 bore, I can do fine with straight grips. Just another opinion, and we all know what they're worth. grin grin

Chuck,

Did you have to special order the double triggers? The only thing I didn't care for on the BR 550 was the single trigger.

I have a Rizzini EM round body. Mine has 30” bbls and I installed double triggers on mine. I noticed that it had two slots underneath. I’m so used to double triggers so why not.
Absolutely no problems with the gun.

The gun was special ordered directly from Fierce. Single or double triggers are no cost, IIRC. The wood was an upcharge.

I like these guns, but I don't like swamped ribs. Wish they would put a level rib on them, might consider a 30" 12 ga. for clays.

I would also prefer a flat rib. You can order Rizzini guns from their custom shop and my understanding is that you can get about anything they can make. But, my gun had only an upgrade to the wood and it took 2 years. I have no idea how long a true custom would take.
