Perazzis can take a pounding better than most, but after a couple years, there can't be too many original parts left on that gun (other than the stock perhaps).

I have had a few 250-300 round days and was happy to call it a day. I guess 750 +/- rounds may be typical for a dove shoot in SA, but even then most don't shoot that volume for more than 3-4 days. I wonder what it does to her physically to take that kind of recoil on a daily basis for years and years?


I was told that the Army uses Perazzis on their shooting teams and that they have documented well over a million rounds through an individual gun.

The pounding that Kim's body takes is even more astounding to me than the gun. I have shot 1625 shells in a day, 1000 of those in three hours, 7/8 oz. loads. Although I experienced no ill effects from the recoil, except a slight headache, I can't even imagine the cumulative effect of doing it days, weeks and months on end. Four days at a time is aplenty for me.
