Description

Lamas is a company based in Chiavari Italy. They are still in business today after a long history of making engineered based products, at the moment for luxury Italian motor manufacturers.
In the 1960'€™s and 70'€™s they had quality shotguns made under their banner mainly to be exported to the USA. This was their most popular model, the 801. It features classic styling with a semi pistol grip and an attractive fluted comb. The interior is engine turned polishing which evidently keeps oil in place. The engraving is particularly fine showing pheasants in flight.
I'€™m not sure if it'€™s the Maserati or Ferrari of shotguns but as can be seen from the photos it'€™s in excellent condition as must be kept in Europe at all costs to stop me having to ship it stateside!
