There is a reason upland hunters keep coming back to Italian over/unders, and the Rizzini BR220 Light makes the case about as well as anything in its class. Built in Brescia by B. Rizzini, this 20 gauge rides on a lightweight alloy receiver that is properly scaled to the gauge, not a 12 gauge frame with smaller holes drilled in it. The result is a gun that tips the scales around 5.6 pounds, which your shoulders and forearms will appreciate somewhere around mile four of a long pheasant walk.
The receiver wears a light coin finish with game scene engraving and a gold trigger, so it looks the part without shouting about it. Underneath the pretty stuff is Rizzini's proven box lock action with automatic ejectors and a single selective trigger, the same reliable mechanics the company builds into its higher grade guns. The 28-inch nickel chrome steel barrels carry a vented rib and a metal front bead, and they swing with the lively, quick handling you want in a bird gun rather than the deliberate feel of a heavy clays rig.
Rizzini dresses this one in Grade 2.5 Turkish walnut with crisp 26 lines per inch checkering, and the wood on these tends to show real figure, not the plain-Jane blanks you see on entry level doubles. Length of pull runs 14 5/8 inches with classic field drop dimensions, so most folks will mount it comfortably right out of the case.
Five flush-fit nickel coated choke tubes come standard, covering everything from close flushing quail to longer passing shots, and the whole rig ships in a Rizzini hard case. For hunters who want genuine Italian craftsmanship in a lightweight 20 that will get carried a lot and babied very little, the BR220 Light hits a sweet spot that is tough to argue with.
The 20 gauge version comes in around 5.6 pounds thanks to its lightweight alloy receiver. That is roughly three quarters of a pound lighter than the standard steel-framed BR220 in the same gauge, and you feel that difference on long walks through grouse cover or CRP fields.
The mechanics are the same, including the box lock action, auto ejectors, and single selective trigger. The Light swaps the standard model's steel frame for an alloy receiver, trimming meaningful weight for hunters who carry more than they shoot. The Light also wears a coin finish with game scene engraving and a gold trigger.
Yes. Rizzini scales the frame properly to the gauge, so the 20 gets its own correctly proportioned receiver rather than a downsized 12 gauge action. That is a big part of why the gun balances and swings the way it does.
It ships with five flush-fitting nickel-coated choke tubes and a wrench, giving you constrictions for everything from close flushing birds to longer crossing shots. The 28-inch nickel chrome steel barrels are threaded for the Rizzini flush choke system.
