Fabarm — Italian Innovation & Performance
Nearly 50 years of Italian barrel-making and shotgun engineering
Nearly 50 years of Italian barrel-making and shotgun engineering
FABARM (Fabbrica Bresciana Armi) has been a pioneer in the Italian firearms industry since the 1970s. The company transformed from the Luciano Galesi name to become FABARM, establishing itself as an innovative force in shotgun manufacturing.
Based in Travagliato, near Brescia, Italy, FABARM has built its reputation on groundbreaking innovations like the TRIBORE barrel system and PULSE pistons. Their commitment to research and development has resulted in superior ballistic performance and reduced recoil across their entire product line.
From semi-automatics to over-under shotguns, FABARM combines traditional Italian craftsmanship with modern manufacturing technology. Their products are known for exceptional quality, innovative design, and outstanding value, making them a favorite among hunters and competitive shooters worldwide.
A different platform from Fabarm's sporting and field doubles — the STF 12 is a purpose-built pump gun on a machined aluminum chassis with an 18" barrel, MIL-STD 1913 rails, ghost-ring sights, and 5+1 capacity. Available in Black and FDE configurations.
FABARM's revolutionary TRIBORE HP barrel system features a unique hyperbolic profile with removable 82mm INNER HP choke tubes. This innovative design provides superior pattern distribution, higher energy transfer, and significantly softer recoil compared to traditional barrel designs.
The patented PULSE piston system ensures reliable cycling with a wide variety of loads, from light target loads to heavy hunting loads. This self-regulating system reduces felt recoil and provides consistent performance in all conditions.
FABARM's revolutionary Titanium and Zirconium PVD (Physical Vapor Deposition) process creates an extremely durable, corrosion-resistant finish that exceeds traditional bluing or parkerizing. This advanced coating provides exceptional protection in harsh hunting environments.
Rather than hand engraving, Fabarm uses laser engraving on its receivers — allowing detailed, repeatable patterns with consistent quality across models.
The ExCompressor system featured in many FABARM semi-automatics provides smooth, reliable operation with reduced recoil. The system adapts to different load types automatically, ensuring perfect cycling regardless of ammunition choice.
