Rizzini BR220 Light 20 gauge and 28 gauge Shotgun

The Rizzini BR220 Light 20/28 Bl/Wd is a purpose-built over-under shotgun engineered for hunters and sport shooters who demand lightweight handling without sacrificing reliability or accuracy. Chambered in 20-gauge with 28-inch barrels, this Italian-crafted firearm delivers the ideal balance of portability and ballistic performance for upland game, clay target sports, and field work where extended carry matters. The lightweight alloy receiver and wood furniture keep overall gun weight minimal, making this an excellent choice for full-day hunting applications or competitive shooting events.

Built on a precision-machined lightweight alloy receiver with fine engraving, the BR220 Light prioritizes durability without excess mass—a critical advantage when hiking rough terrain or competing in multi-stage events. The 28-inch barrels are optimally configured to balance shot patterns and handling dynamics in 20-gauge, offering superior maneuverability compared to longer magnum configurations. A front metal bead sight provides intuitive target acquisition, while the wood stock and grip deliver traditional ergonomics and instinctive point-ability. The two-round capacity and over-under configuration make quick second shots feasible while maintaining fast reload cycles during fast-paced upland or clay competition.

This shotgun is ideally suited to shooters who have mastered fundamentals and seek a refined, lightweight platform for serious field or competition work. The 20-gauge bore reduces recoil impulse compared to 12-gauge alternatives, allowing shooters to train longer with less fatigue while maintaining accuracy and follow-up speed. The wood furniture and engraved receiver make this a functional workhorse with timeless aesthetics—a firearm that performs as well in a trophy room as it does in the field. Proper ammunition selection and regular maintenance will ensure generations of reliable performance from this Italian engineering classic.
