Chosen as the best new shotgun for 2003 by a panel of experts at Outdoor Life
magazine, the Magnus Light is truly an extraordinary shotgun. The Magnus Light
was created to be the most attractive alloy frame over-and-under available. It
weighs an astounding five and three-quarter pounds in twelve gauge and barely
over five pounds in twenty and twenty-eight gauges. Every detail is carefully
considered to reduce weight and maintain balance. The frame is machined from a
solid alloy forging costing considerably more than steel. Durability is ensured
through the use of hardened steel at all high-wear points. To make the gun as
light as possible and maintain perfect balance, we hollow the stock and craft
the forend hardware from the same alloy as the receiver. If you hunt demanding
terrain or just appreciate a light, responsive bird gun, the Magnus Light is
the shotgun of choice.
Every Caesar Guerini field gun comes with a velvet lined lockable hard case
and five precision patterned flush chokes (CYL, IC, M, IM, F). A plastic choke
case is also included.
