For those soliciting opinions on Sabatti double rifles:

The basic Model 92 is GARBAGE! The forend iron is not hardened correctly and it prematurely wears out, causing the gun to slowly become impossible to open. This is due to excessive firing pin protrusion during opening--you have to drag the firing pins on the primers. A good double will have the firing pins out of the way sooner.

Also, the muzzle end treatments and barrels are a joke. Father bought one, returned one for repair, it came back THE SAME WAY, and looked at another one. The second sabatti double rifle was just as messed up as his first one!! Save your money and buy a used Merkel.

If you want the truth email me at sabattistink@gmail.com and I will tell you more, or just ask follow ups on this forum. I am disgusted with the way EAA is treating its customers who spend 3,000 dollars on a gun!!
