This is the best gun manufacturer video I have ever watched. So professional, so detailed totally enthralling. I now want to go there for my next shotgun. Amazing 👏

[@gnarshread]

Agreed!

[@union310]

Holland and Holland used to have one on youtube but removed it in whole and put parts of it on.

[@MrPutman]

Italians and their design/passion/love for beauty. No one else comes close.

[@PietroColombo-em5mz]

Thanks!

[@snook1249]

Bloody hell you just raised the bar with this one, respect to the production team. Top banana.

[@NoWr2Run]

As an American i understand now why these works of art cost so much, unreal how many process's they go through. I GET IT NOW, I UNDERSTAND, T.Y. TGS.

[@8s9s96]

i love this and all the special presentations, i.e., the two Longthorne documentaries. Well produced and edited. Keep 'em coming. You've come a long way from the early days when you and your associates would layout your favourite pellet air rifles on a table. :)

[@bigbob8192]

Extremely well made film , well done , absolutely loved it . Keep them coming .

[@peterrussell9476]

I have to say, probably one of the best videos i have seen on a gun company- absolute top class, film making and content well done lads !

[@jeanmorin3247]

This was a trip definitely worth taking. Congratulations to the production team and to yourself, Johnny. Absolutely enchanting visit. This deserves a prize as a technical documentary video production. It also deserves accolades as being exactly what gun-lovers want to see: soul being put into steel and wood. Keep Passionate and Carry on!

[@tgsoutdoors]

👏 👏 Thankyou very much

[@mikeproctor4944]

I wanted a 20 gauge for casual clay and dove shooting here in the U.S., my choices were the 20 gauge Beretta EELL or the Rizzini Regal Deluxe. I went with the Rizzini.

[@danhill6333]

What an experience that must have been. My envy runneth over. That S2000 mini 410 has got me wondering if I take the plunge on a nice 410 O/U, maybe the Rizzini would be the better option. More soul. I'll have to say I got a good laugh watching Edward's description of the English green and expression of Ferrari yellow hull.

[@8s9s96]

The .410 is my favorite bore for skeet (along with 28 gauge). I almost ordered/purchased a 410 barrel for either my Perazzi MX8 or MX8-20, but ordering a new 410 shotgun (as a whole) would be more cost effective. Keep in mind that if lead shot is banned, and bismuth and tungsten are too expensive as alternatives, the 410, 1/2 oz. case will not accommodate the same volume-to-mass steel load. The case will be obsolete. The 28 gauge may then possibly accept a 1/2 oz. steel load.

[@danhill6333]

@@8s9s96 that will be a sad day. I would load tungsten for hunting, but at $1 round just for the tungsten shot, no way would I shoot clays with it.

[@MrRiccardo1965]

As Italian I thank you for this beautiful documentary , bravo !

[@mikechapman624]

I’m glad I purchased my Rizzini 28 gauge with 29” barrels two years ago. Shoots like a charm on pheasants!!

[@chriswillett1364]

Wow, never be so compelled to watch from start to finish, faultless production, I met the main Rizzini man at the shooting show a couple of years ago, what a true gent, I’m a Perazzi fan but would like to try the 460 and then of course take the fitting trip with John Henry from Bywell’s who took me for the Perazzi, it’s great to see that Rizzini don’t charge extra like many others, your video has definitely created much interest, thanks again for a fantastic production very informative.

[@timeverett7828]

Phenomenal video congratulations. To put it mildly the Italian gun trade is very incestuous. In that Valley there is people from every family working on everybody else's product. Some companies make parts for many other brands. Rizzini has come a long way from what they once were. They have always made a good product but now it's far better. Outsourcing reduces cost. I still prefer everything made in house.

[@BikeGunCarGav]

I love the fact that they were that excited about their products and brand that they took the time educate and inform you of your error - put Purdey in the bottom this year chap 😂

[@chrissywhiskers]

Brilliant video, JC & Sash. I own a lovely 20 bore straight hand stock Rizzini which I love. Very good gunmaker and wonderful to see their passion for gun making come through in the video.

[@stigscanuckcousin9999]

"its distinguished, and dignified, and then you turn it upside down and its IN YOUR FACE FERRARI"... had to pause for a bit to stop laughing

[@leonschoots]

Another great film guys, I have watched so many over the last week and was strikes me more than anything is the difference between the experience here and the one of the American factory. They feel like what we image a gun maker to be and even though not everything is done in house it's a whole village working together.

[@tomjoseph1444]

So, I slam a top notch gun manufacturer and then I get a guided tour.....OK, got it. LOL. Seriously though, what beautiful workmanship.

[@tgsoutdoors]

It wasn’t a slam, more of a misunderstanding 😂

[@robpowell9162]

That is a world class documentary that could be shown anywhere and be considered made by the best of the best. Holiday in the sun come tgs come Attenborough’esque docu. Loving it Mr Carter and team. Can we get this on the bbc or discovery or history channel?! What has changed since 2019 with Rizzini, minus a factory tour and time with Edward King? The new guns seem to have better engraving and a gorgeous front end in the sporting. The video shows the passion of the makers and partners such as ASI, I look forward to trying a Rizzini one day.

[@funkla65]

I'm sure that was a great couple of days, and over too soon. Thanks for sharing! Now, we need a show outlining the Rizzini family, and their various companies (including that a Rizzini married a Fausti). I think their are 3 or 4 companies in the mix...

[@snook1249]

Yes I second that, seems that not all rizzinis are equal?

[@frode880]

Hands down best gun related video I’ve watched all year well done johnny/rizzini

[@tgsoutdoors]

Thankyou, that’s very kind of you

[@Lethal_Intent]

Brilliant great watch me and my old man just sat and watched with enjoyment id love to see other videos done to this standard though i guess its a tall order and alot of time. But this is probably by far one of your best.

[@felgate11]

6 foot 7 & his Mam told him "Don't be Long" !!

[@stevewright6333]

Great video. Would definitely make me consider A Rizzini in future. Jonny, get a review done on that BR460

[@tgsoutdoors]

In the pipeline

[@darellkettley6622]

What a bloody fantastic and interesting video .Great watch lads. I take my hat off to you 👌👍👊

[@jamiesteele698]

Great video! Awesome to see how my Rizzini’s were made.. BR320 12ga and my little beauty BR550 round body 20ga Thanks 🇨🇦

[@Johnny-jr2lq]

The way he explained the reason we love guns was spot on and I subbed because of it. I couldn’t have explained it better myself.

[@cliveevans5755]

That was a great film , thoroughly enjoyed it.

[@ΓΙΩΡΓΟΣΡΑΓΖΗΣ]

Excellent video! Bravo! I have only one question: where are they barrels made? Thanks a lot!

[@hunt4redoctober628]

Simply superb! Exceptional.

[@enoughyoutube9723]

Some people might not know there are more than one Rizzini maker. Do one on F.lli Rizzini. Do a history on the Rizzini family. Lot of gun makers in that family. F.lli Rizzini , Fair, Fausti and more. Thanks

[@jimzielanski8045]

Jonny and team, Great video of the Rizzini production. I am sure after that it is easy to be biased ( I would be ) but any thoughts on the Rizzini S2000 versus the Beretta 694 ? Once again great job to all. JZ Montana USA

[@charlesholder8009]

1 hour and 26 seconds well spent. I just wish...

[@Dimitrius001]

You’ve really outdone yourself with this one. You’ve come a long way. You and your team have long since gone from just another “gun review channel” to an industry respected gun review and showcase channel. Think about it. If someone like Rizzini thought it important to invite you to their factory and give you a personal tour, it means that you have earned their respect and that what you have to say about their products matters to them. I’m betting Rizzini isn’t the only one following your channel.

[@kdavis269]

What are the green tarp coverings for on the hill at the shooting range?

[@kevinedge9824]

The lead shot rolls back down the hill and gets recycled

[@allandobbs7059]

Always had Rizzini down as entry level to medium guns!Boy was I wrong.What a family business!Bellissimo!👌

[@BestKiteboardingOfficial]

I'm not a gun guy but that entire video was spellbinding

[@consumertester5665]

A Rizzini shotgun has just become top of my total obsession ‘I want one!’ list

[@geraldswain3259]

Hi John, spent many happy days shooting at the Italian Grand Italia championship in my younger days, loved the food, wonderful people with shooting grounds to die for. You really looked like you had a fantastic time it really shows through, this video goes up with the best you have shown so far, absolutely wonderful.

[@Madmoody21]

.410 Was the real choice of proper shooters in the 50's they are very capable in skilled hands.

[@davidsanders3114]

Brilliant Jonny, every second just breathtaking mate. Thank you for sharing

[@okeefer2000]

Kevin De Bruyne?

[@ChrisSurrey]

Really like the look of this side by side. Waiting for my licence to come through. Will be coming for tuition & gun fitting / buying (under £750 budget) Want to shoot clays, go beating and maybe get on some pigeon shoots 👍🏻 your channel has really got my interest. I live in west oxfordshire

[@rmccaba9131]

Incredible! Drinking a glass of Italian red and watching this 👌🏻

[@SuperA355]

Hi, nice film! so should I buy a Rizzini BR110? or a a boring Silver P or B525 Best Regards AB 🤓🇳🇴

[@tbcoachniblick1208]

No eye protection at the range....??? WTH...??? But the rest of the video was fantastic...!!

[@benjaminwilley3578]

Wow! Blown away, without doubt a fantastic experience and good to know such companies still exist.

[@olegkrikunov5218]

С великим удовольствием посмотрел, один из лучших обзоров по ружейной Италии.

[@birddogmi67]

The stock making is beautiful to watch.

[@ragnirealestate7393]

Amazing film! Loved every minute of it. When I saw it was an hour long I knew I was in for something great.

[@stevesimmons6685]

Amazing! I want one. Till then, I’ll shoot my lowly yildiz sporter. Spare ribs compared to filet mignon.

[@benwinter2420]

'You are not an gentleman only English' . . ouch

[@Tompii]

Thanks for showing this! I'm about to buy my first over and under, and finding out about Rizzini is in the same price point as Beretta or Browning. But these fellows feels so heart warming and Rizzini seems to be quite rare in Sweden. Might endup with one.

[@Tompii]

Just to come back. YES I bought a Rizzini O/U BR110 Sporter with adjustable comb. With just 2.5 grade walnut, but atleast I got the darkest one in store. Never were interested in the quality of the wood and other details until I came across this channel. It's great to be honest, it's comfortable and the craftmanship is on point.

[@DFox-ud3gx]

When you open up with a shot of cheers it's going to be good.

[@tgsoutdoors]

🍻

[@pieezio1]

@TGS Outdoors Fantastic! Absolutley brilliant video. The quality of your videos just keeps getting better amd better. More manufacturer tours, more Uk clay pigeon tours, more @AntMcleaenon and definitely more beautiful guns! Greetings from Austria👍🌿🇦🇹

[@tgsoutdoors]

👏 👏 ❤️

[@erikhoins194]

If you love guns, this film is a must see.

[@panosp5399]

In 45:40 he says that the barrels arrived from the supplier but he didn't tell who is the supplier of the barrels

[@georgesheffield1580]

There are a number of Rizini's , which one ?

[@tgsoutdoors]

There is only one Rizzini now, the others have all gone or changes there’s name. This one is Batista Rizzini

[@georgesheffield1580]

Half of the people in the area are Rizinni's or are related to them

[@joegraziano5849]

I’m interested in doing much the same. Do you have a UK point of contact?

[@theashbys8863]

Another brill one thanks Jonny and team

[@Lucysdad66]

I prefer the way Bretta grades there would it seems more Uniform consistent

[@scottwilson1420]

At 19:09 there is a box of Caesar Guerini items in the oil room. Looks like there are a few companies that do a lot of things for many of the manufactures.

[@tgsoutdoors]

Bertusi were stock finishers to the local trade

[@xaviermachuca8042]

Gran video mi amigo felicitaciones

[@Parfashrek]

TGS showing here why they are the absolute kings of gun/shooting content nowadays, can’t think of anyone that even comes close. Amazing work, what a vid this was

[@tgsoutdoors]

❤️ ❤️ ❤️

[@nickloughrey9841]

Engineering and art combined , with a passion for what they do !.............respect!

[@magumba1000]

Same here...i have always loved enginering as an art form and goodness me kept me captivated for an hour...thank you TGS

[@marcoceccarelli6415]

These men are Craftsman real artist

[@sasha.novakovic]

Bloody good team sir

[@yiyobancho]

Great video What gun range is this?

[@rabross4703]

Lost all interest when I saw men wearing masks!!!!

[@Lucysdad66]

At thirteen twenty that looked like jeff gordon

[@FourT6and22]

Would love to see a similar factory tour of Zoli

[@WiltshireMan]

Fabulous:)

[@tgsoutdoors]

Thankyou

[@CallumHepworth-Smith]

I had a Rizzini round action 16g (new) ... had it for a year and got rid of it. Engineering finish on it was very poor... Choke threads poor, hinge pin badly finished on the outside of the action, screws not flush... just poor.

[@sonicrose8430]

had a kid on my trapshooting team while back who took very good care of his Rizzini yet in like 2 years it broke and needed VERY expensive part replacements 3 times

[@robertswyers4420]

Wonderful gunmaker with with plenty of True Heart....very impressive

[@glenncarpenter7422]

you don't shoot a gun, you fire a gun

[@zeropointzerothree3496]

This factory tour is brilliant. It helped me make my decision to purchase my LH Sporter in 28 gauge, and I love it! Thanks Johnny and team for the documentary. Got an inexpensive SxS on order to see if I like it before I order the BR550 😉

[@puppshades2554]

I have a aurora series made by B. rizzini for sig-arms , buy it 2003 many many rounds solid as a rock , it come with 28 in barrel, getting too old and slowing dawn , whent to amazon get me a rizzini barrel 32in fit perfect and my average in clay (.12g, full chock 1 1/8 reloaded) is 23clays out of 25, some weekends out 6 boxes 3 are 25 and whit hydraulic clay throwers 4 0r 5 boxes dropped 25 ....very good guns by the way b. rizzini use to design the beretta shotguns , i order one it will take for ever a .28 ga o/u with 32 inc barrel , if you get old get longest barrels , patter your gun AT 40 YARDS OR METERS 40 , 40 GET IT OK, AND AIDM N O T P O I N T

[@Malikpigeons1]

Thanks to so much Admin You brought for your viewer a very informative channel about best gunsmaker of the world i think The Baretta, Longthrone,Rizzini best gun smith in Only in Italy❤

[@TimberTramp]

Great….now I need a Rizzini…28 & 16 & 470NE🤣 …ok, 5 actually….410 & 375h&h I could just split the difference at 4 and go with a 416 rigby and be done with it.

[@TheHistorian1066]

Would you ever consider looking at the other Rizzini family brands such as Fair? I started out with the Fair Game 12/76 and could not be happier.

[@TyinAlaska]

I was going to buy a shotgun. Now I'm saving more money, and I'll pick out my parts when I'm in Italy spreading my grandfather's ashes. Thank you for this.

[@sonicrose8430]

the thing thats holds back Rizzini for me is my teammate's breaking and needing new expensive parts 3 times in just a couple years. This was a kid who took very good care of his shotgun too.

[@loucalouca]

I don’t want a Rizzini , I NEED one ! And those cartridges, beautiful passionate style

[@tonyemans4512]

Outstanding film very much enjoyed watching it, such passion for gun making

[@georgesheffield1580]

Which Rizinni.? E,B, I , Frattilli ?

[@gordoncouger9648]

Joe I sure like the shows inside gunmakers factories. Having worked as a machinist and toolmaker I can see that they have invested a couple of million dollars or more in CNC machines to reduce the hand labor making double guns by having parts that fit or almost ft with no handwork. We get much more precise guns in the bargain. Bring in Gardone Val Trompia probably makes investing in CNC machines safer as it is possible to keep them busy doing contract work for more than 150 gun makers working in the valley. There sure seem to be a lot of manufacturers in a town of 11,000 in a valley of 80,000 people.

[@baronofb.5323]

Fantastic video! Rizzini should pay you handsomely for this marketing. ;-)

[@NoLogic69]

Amazing video, absolutely loved it. Jonny, what is the shooting ground called you visited? Looks amazing, I need to take my son there. Love your videos. Cheers..... Mario

[@p47rr]

I wish you would give us a tour of the Sabatti factory the next time your in Italy. Their current videos on KZbin are not well done.

[@tgsoutdoors]

Email them and suggest they do a video with us?

[@perrypappous7617]

Johnny, you are in the Mecca of shotgun making. Rizzini shotguns are not common here in California, but all I seen have been beautifully finished. Beretta and Perazzi dominate the clay shooting parks, certainly in Southern California. Perry Pappous

[@gazpal]

Such a brilliant documentary from every aspect, but luckily I wasn't in your position. My Geordie accent would be best suited to a tour of WR Pape's factory - if it still existed - and definitely not Rizzini (Such a professional company). 🙂 Onward and upward, so keep em coming Jonny 🙂

[@wholeNwon]

The proof house was only 15 km away. Wasn't it worth the trip? Perhaps you could make some negative comments about Fabbri and get an invitation. Doubt you'd get another "spanking", but even if did, wouldn't it be a small price to pay for all of your viewers?

[@yahatinda]

GUNS FOR THE ONE PERCENTERS

[@Duschbag]

I have a left handed Rizzini made just for me and I love it. The Color Case Hardened Receiver is my favorite feature. With it's 30" Barrels, it swings ever so smoothly when I'm Shooting Sporting Clay's. My friends with their Browning Citori's hate me... 😁 I also sell Industrial Tools and Abrasives so I was salivating over all the Stocks being finished.

[@brianflanagan7223]

I have mine for 17 years probably have over 100,000 rounds through it sporting clays model 32-in and I'm just amazed on how they are made I love mine and I would never sell it keep it going guys

[@konradvesterberg7318]

I just realized my dream gun that I'm gonna drool about in my brain is a custom Rizzini RK1 for stalking roe deer and hunting Swedish Forest grouse with small Spitz dogs

[@norwester03]

An amazing video Johnny. You and your team have put something together that's truly amazing. Rizzini aren't that well known here in Australia, but I have the option to buy an older model that was imported here some time back. After watching this video, and the experience that goes into making them, makes me want it even more..😊👌

[@mikeproctor4944]

Excellent video. I personally own two Rizzini's. A RB Deluxe 28 bore and a Regal Deluxe 20 bore. My question to you is how do you think they shot? I think they shoot some what high. Also after shooting my Perazzi they are so light it's hard to control them on targets

[@solentflyerparagliding]

Hi Jonny and team...Great video - always thought of Rizzini as a more specialist provider for those who actually want a Rizzini as opposed to those who want a gun and pick up / consider and evaluate the usual Beretta / Browning etc. This video certainly stretches the imagination and puts what appears to be a high quality gun maker at the forefront of accessibility. Certainly if nothing else, it improved and developed my understanding who they are as gunmakers as well as gun making more generally...a great video and thoroughly enjoyable watch...well done..!
