Fabarm Nobile III The webpage has some detailed photos. The screw-choke blunderbluss effect is just part of the whole package. I'll get a style-check from a Cynergy owner to see if this is cool or not.

The exterior treatment doesn't bother me--a non-traditional aesthetic on the metal. The innards of that sewer pipe are challenging because what's happening up front isn't thoroughly explained.

Hello Yeti,
Find it rather appealing. Interesting they would innovate on a side by side.
Thanks for sharing.

Folks, it ain't my cup of tea but it's not any worse than some of the wierd stuff the Brits tried out a long time ago. Even the Yankees ventured from the water trough now and then. They'll learn that you don't play around with tradition (what works).

It's Fabarmulous. Why didn't you post pic of this beauty last week. Maaan, I just bought like new 1959 Beretta clunker with double Purdey bites and Greener X-bolt. I would have bought this new gem instead, but my pink piggy bank is now empty.

The expanded muzzle OD isn't new on SxS guns, SKB comes to mind. It's not necessary as any owner of a Briley choked barrel set will tell you - just production economics.
The rest of it seems doomed to failure... who wants a new fangled traditional gun?

It's not the swollen muzzle OD that confuses me. Browning O/Us have that. The Fabarms cutaway shows a choke tube and what appears to another cone or pre-choke further back. What's the rationale and implication for performance except getting 12 ga. pellet counts in a full choke pattern from typical 20 ga. shot charge?
