There is something about a well-built side-by-side that an over/under just can't replicate, and the F.A.I.R. Iside Select is a fine example of why. Built in Italy's Brescia region by a family firm that has been machining doubles since the early 1970s, the Iside line starts with a receiver cut from a single piece of forged steel and barrels joined with the traditional chopper-lump method, where barrel and breech are formed from one piece of steel. That is old-world construction done with modern CNC precision, and you feel it the moment the action closes with that solid, vault-like snap.
The Select trim is where this gun earns its name. The polished silver receiver carries gold bird inlays on the side plates, and the English-style straight grip stock is cut from grade C+ walnut with a hand-rubbed oil finish that shows off the figure instead of hiding it under lacquer. Function keeps pace with the looks. You get a single selective trigger so you can choose which barrel fires first, automatic ejectors that kick empties clear for quick reloads on a busy dove field, and a manual safety that stays where you put it when birds are working.
The 28 inch barrels give this 12 gauge a smooth, deliberate swing that suits flushing birds, driven shoots, and a casual round of sporting clays alike. F.A.I.R.'s TechniChoke XP50 interchangeable choke system lets you tighten up for late-season pheasants or open things up for quail over pointers, so one gun covers the whole season. The straight English grip keeps the wrists relaxed and encourages that instinctive, heads-up style of shooting that side-by-side fans swear by.
If you have been wanting a true Italian double without wandering into bespoke-gun money, the Iside Select is the kind of shotgun that gets handed down rather than traded in. It balances between the hands, carries light on a long walk, and looks the part when the tailgate drops and the dogs get loose.
The Iside Select comes with a single selective trigger, so you can pick which barrel fires first depending on the choke you have installed. That is a step up from the standard Iside models in the line, many of which use traditional double triggers. It also pairs with automatic ejectors, which toss spent hulls clear when you break the action.
Yes. This model uses F.A.I.R.'s TechniChoke XP50 interchangeable choke system, so you can swap constrictions to match the birds or targets in front of you. Additional tubes in the XP50 pattern are available through F.A.I.R.'s importer if you want to round out your set. Just keep constrictions at Modified or more open if you plan to run steel shot.
It handles both well. The 28 inch barrels give a steady, controlled swing that works nicely on clays courses, while the light carry and quick pointing of a straight-grip side-by-side make it a natural upland gun. Most owners treat it as a do-everything field double that pulls weekend duty on the clays range.
F.A.I.R. stands for Fabbrica Armi Isidoro Rizzini, a family-owned gunmaker based in the Brescia region of northern Italy, the historic heart of Italian shotgun making. The Iside series is machined from forged steel with chopper-lump barrel construction, a method usually found on much pricier doubles. The guns are brought into the U.S. through Italian Firearms Group.
