Description
Anyone who has lugged a full-weight 12 gauge through cattails all afternoon knows why a gun like this exists. The Rizzini BR110 Light Luxe is built on a gray anodized light alloy frame with internal titanium reinforcement, bringing the whole package in around 6.75 pounds. That is serious weight savings for a 12 gauge over/under, and you feel it by the third hour of a pheasant hunt. Rizzini did not skimp on the looks either. The receiver wears an ornamental scroll motif with a pheasant in flight engraved on the belly, and the oiled Turkish walnut sets it all off nicely.
What Makes the BR110 Light Luxe Worth a Look
The 28-inch barrels are chrome-lined nickel chrome steel with a vent rib and a silver bead up front, chambered for 3-inch shells. Underneath, you get the same proven Rizzini boxlock mechanics found in their pricier guns: a single selective trigger, automatic ejectors with oversized ejector cams, and a manual thumb safety you can run from either side. The fixed pistol grip stock and rounded forend both carry crisp 26 lines-per-inch checkering, with a 14 5/8-inch length of pull that fits most folks right out of the case.
A Light Luxe That Earns Its Keep in the Field
Rizzini ships this one ready to hunt. Five nickel-plated flush-fitting choke tubes cover everything from close flushes over a pointer to longer passing birds, and the wrench and fitted ABS hard case are in the box too. The BR110 line has built a strong reputation as the value play in the B. Rizzini lineup, giving you genuine Italian gunmaking without the custom-shop wait. If your ideal day involves a lot of walking and a little shooting, the Light Luxe version makes even more sense. It swings quick, mounts naturally, and looks the part when you break it open at the tailgate. This is the kind of gun that gets handed down, not traded in.

Frequently Asked Questions
How is the BR110 Light Luxe different from the standard BR110?
The Light Luxe swaps the standard steel receiver for a gray anodized light alloy frame with internal titanium reinforcement, cutting noticeable weight for long days afield. It also gets upgraded engraving, including a pheasant in flight on the underside of the receiver. The core mechanics, including the boxlock action, single selective trigger, and automatic ejectors, carry over from the standard gun.
What choke tubes come with the Rizzini BR110 Light Luxe?
It ships with five nickel-plated flush-fitting choke tubes plus a wrench, covering constrictions from open patterns for close flushing birds out to full for longer shots. That range handles just about any upland or dove field situation without buying extras.
Is this 12 gauge too light to shoot comfortably?
At roughly 6.75 pounds it sits in a sweet spot for a field 12 gauge. With standard game loads it stays pleasant, and the walnut stock with 14 5/8 inch length of pull spreads recoil well. Like any lightweight gun, heavy 3-inch magnum loads will let you know they went off, but for typical upland and clays loads it is a comfortable shooter.
Can I shoot the Rizzini BR110 Light Luxe at the clays range too?
Absolutely. While it is built as a hunting gun, the 28-inch barrels, single selective trigger, and interchangeable chokes make it perfectly at home on skeet, sporting clays, or five stand. Its quick handling means it shines on faster crossing and flushing-style presentations.
