I did buy the new Fabarm Axis RS 12 Trap combo with the Free Float O/U barrels with tri-wood, and absolutely love it. I had the gun for 5 days , have 7 - 25's out of it, including 100 straight at 16yds. Shot my best doubles score of 95. Gun works great, no problems at all. Great trigger. Pics coming soon.

The TRIWOOD™ finish, introduced by FABARM in 2002 in a hi-tec process to improve the walnut grains and to warranty a perfect waterproof protection.
TRIWOOD maintains also the warmth and feel of wood, all stocks are different.
The walnut quality, its contrast, its grade are extremely important to obtain a perfect TRIWOOD stock. The key point is to have a perfect the mix between the original and additional grains.
TRIWOOD is not a film fixed on the walnut; its a process to deposit ink on a piece of wood.
The TRIWOOD stock is protected by a tough scratch – resistant semi gloss acrylic varnish.

Hello: I appreciate you listing what the Triwood finish is. I was told it is a film covering. Great to hear it is just a ink finishing process to bring out the grain of the wood. I will be looking at one as soon as I can get my hands on one. Thanks, Eric

Did the hi viz beads come on it or did you add them?

No, but I heard that different sizes maybe available at some point. I know that release triggers will be available in the fall.

I saw on one of the other post that you got a heck of a deal on this gun. Do you know how much mark up your gun shop would have on one? The lowest price I've gotten is $5250

In the June issue of Sporting Clays magazine columnist Nick Sisley reviewing the Fabarms Axis RS12 FB Sported writes:
"As with last years Axis, this one comes with Triwood, a film that is laid over the wood. The resulting looks I call a $4,000 piece of walnut."
It sure looks to me to be a lot like the film that Beretta was putting on their stocks which they called "Extra Wood." (which they discontinued )

That's my new favorite looking trap combo. It seems to have everything I'm looking for. Where was it actually made? I'm gonna start saving.
