Perazzi's are fine guns, Several friends of mine shoot them and have used them more than once. They are slim compared to Brownings I will admit. Put put my Beretta 687 any of the target O/U's in a rack next to American SxS's like Parker LC Smith Model 21 they are big and to my eye Clunky Thats a good thing for a target gun not what I am looking for in a nice SxS for informal or formal SxS competiton. SKB seems to be following the same plan. SxS with all the modern features.

Perazzi SxS I saw in person had the same palm swell large forearm and buttstock as their O/U guns. It was not pretty. In the SxS ad's Perazzi shows a straight stock splinter forearm gun that looks nice, but have not seen that gun in person. Action is slim no reason it could not be well stocked, but it was not.

If somebody wanted to have the ultimate target SxS Perazzi is probably it, but what's the point? Not looking for the ultimate target gun for SxS Clays. It does have to work well and the vintage SxS's can do the job. Light English game gun not a good choice. American Vintage guns have the barrel length and weigh about the same as O/U target guns if you get the right one.
