Update - according to Danny at Giacomo (& Rich Bullard here), this is an MX-2-L barrel! Here's more info that I found on those guns: Perazzi MX – 2 – L was designed and built for “Olympic Trap” 29 ½ inch barrels. The MX-2-L had a non-selective trigger firing the top barrel first. The gun comes with a detachable trigger system; spares kit including spare firing pins and spare V - springs both the gun and spares kit are cased. This model is rare as the production run quoted by Perazzi for this model was approx. 1000 guns in total world wide. The MX-2-L shot very flat. The model production was started in 1982 in preparation for the 1984 Olympics. The model MX-2-L was made between 1982 and 1986.
This barrel is a little less common since it came without side ribs.
Very cool. $1800.00
Folks - here's a beautiful 29.5" O/U barrel, maybe from a DB 81 or a Pigeon gun or other? Type IV, No side ribs. I bought it here on TS last year and Kerry Allor installed it on my MX 2000 early this year. I have the receipt for your inspection and you could call to verify with him if desired. He had to laser weld a new lug and you can see it is marked '.015'. The barrel was not reblued following this work and there are a few discoloration marks around the lug area, but these are covered by the forend wood.
This barrel was not fitted with a center bead from the factory. It has the original white bead. The rib is about 13 mm tall measured from the top of the top barrel to the top of the rib and 11 mm wide and the machine marking on top the rib is perfect - the top of the rib is very slightly concave the entire length and not one speck of rust, beautiful. The barrel was ported before I bought it. It was fitted with Briley thinwall flushmount chokes before I bought it: M, IM, LM, F. Bores are bright & shiny!!!
Needless to say, it shoots great and there no issues. Weighs 3 lbs, 5 ounces. (The heavy barrel on my MX 2000 skeet gun weighs 4lbs 1 ounce - so this barrel is on the non-heavy side for it's rib configuration.
Markings on the barrel and mono block: (There are no Importer markings on this barrel). Left side, upper barrel, aft: Perazzi spa - MADE IN BRESCIA ITALY. 18,4 on upper and lower barrel; ACCIAIO SPECIAL on bottom of bottom barrel in front of mono block; assorted marks on bottom of mono block: L, FINITO with a 'star' on top, an 'AI' in a square box, a light-struck coat of arms and some light-struck indistinguishable numerals .
CAM 70 two stars and 18,4 on upper barrel near the mono block
KG1 with a struck 5 then 20, one star and 18,4 on the lower barrel near the mono block
Bluing is Excellent+ and very deep, barrel is a high polish finish. No dents or dings, just normal marks that accumulate over the years of careful handling and shooting.
This seems like a very special barrel, a terrific piece. I have not seen another one like it - the DB81 barrels with side ribs pop up now and then.
I have bought and sold numerous guns, barrels and odds & ends on this forum. My previous call sign was 'anchorsteam', but I was gone off the web for so long that I forgot my password, so I simply changed out my call sign! I am a casual, occasional Trap shooter - but might be interested in trading for a comparable condition Type IV Unsingle barrel, preferably with adjustable rib.
My cell is 703-309-4967 in case you are seriously interested and want to talk about this fine barrel.
