FAQ
What chokes are included with the Rizzini USA BR460?
The shotgun comes with five interchangeable choke tubes (C, IC, M, IM, F) in a hard case, letting you dial in your pattern for any target or game.
Is this shotgun compatible with 3-inch magnum shells?
Yes, the Rizzini USA 5601-1230IPS BR460 is chambered for 2 3/4″ and 3″ 12-gauge shells, so you can use heavy loads for waterfowl or lighter target loads.
How does the mechanical trigger work on this model?
The mechanical trigger fires the first barrel, then automatically resets for the second barrel regardless of recoil. This gives you consistent pull weights and reliable follow-up shots.
Can I mount a red dot or scope on the vent rib barrel?
The vent rib is designed for bead sight use, but you can add a rail mount or a clamp-on base for optics if needed. Most shooters stick with the factory bead for clays.
