Fausti Stefano are famous all over the world for designing and building traditional over and under and side-by-side shotguns where flawless technical performance, very high quality standards and beautiful hand touches live perfectly together.

Since 1948 Stefano Fausti has been making fine over and under and side by side shotguns in Marcheno, Italy under the brand Fausti Stefano Arms Company. Now, that Stefano Fausti is retired his three daughters- Elena, Giovanna and Barbara Fausti have taken over that business and are focusing their efforts to the United States market. Fausti USA is headed by Craig Johnson and Joe Cunniffe, both industry veterans. Fausti Stefano shotguns are made by utilizing the highest technology to ensure the tightest tolerances, yet are finished by artisans. The finished products are beautiful to behold and shoot. They will be passed down from generation to generation.

One of our Flagship products, the DEA Duetto (pronounced Dayahh Doo-etto (which means Twin Goddesses) was designed from the bottom up to showcase the high technology that FAUSTI possesses and is capable in producing in production.
Having the capability to manufacture a scaled frame 28 gauge and an extra set of .410 bore barrels and fore-end shows that Fausti is a major contender in the market.

The action of the over and unders (Caledon, Class and Class Round Body) has a full length bottom locking mechanism for more strength and durability.
The trunions can be replaced with three larger sizes for maximum durability. That equals many thousands of rounds. We don’t know how many because no one has worn one out yet!

Fausti shotguns are all made with billet and the latest in CNC machinery. Our tolerances are extremely tight as noted by the action.
Although tight initially, it does not take long for the parts to marry and create a smooth, solid lockup.

Our barrels and receivers are made of high quality, strong steel.

The stock designs are ergonomically correct and provide ease of handling, incredible pointability and positive feel.

We have a shorter length of pull already available compared to other manufacturers.
Our 12.5” ‘Youth’ (for lack of better term, we’ll look into renaming as not to exclude other demographics; shorter men, women or barrel chested individuals)” stock allows a shooter to grow into the gun by providing a spare standard length stock available as an accessory in late 2010.

• Fausti USA has a full service center unlike other small manufacturers.

• Unlike large manufacturers, Fausti USA has PARTS and a FULL SERVICE CENTER that can turn guns around and back to the owner quickly.

Fausti USA has the capability to manufacture “Club Guns” which means that your club can make it’s own shotgun, from engraving style to stock design to rib configuration to barrel length, choke configuration and even choose the type of case the gun comes in (or not!). Simply put, your club gets to design the gun from recoil pad to front bead sight. We can do it with as little as 25 guns to over several hundred. All in 90 days or less!
