Serial 42159 is a vintage Italian Armsport Model 27L1 over/under in 12 gauge. Its 28-inch vent rib barrels carry 2 3/4-inch chambers and fixed Modified and Full chokes. The barrels are blued over an engraved stainless receiver, and the gun has automatic ejectors, a selective single trigger and a manual safety. The checkered walnut stock measures 14.5 inches with a right-hand palm swell. Light handling marks aside, condition is very good and the bores are excellent.

With Modified and Full chokes fixed in place, this is a gun for longer field shots and trap-style targets, and the palm swell fits a right-handed Connecticut shooter. The 2 3/4-inch chambers limit it to standard-length shells. Since it is a 12 gauge, the state's deer rules do not rule it out for private-land slug hunting during the November 18 to December 8 season, but the tight fixed chokes make it better suited to clays and upland work.
