Happy Anniversary to you and the Mrs. Beautiful piece of lumber you picked out. Glad to see you're doing well. Take care.

This was so enjoyable to watch for nothing other than seeing the joy that you get from the gun. Brilliant! Well deserved fella. Look forward to bumping into you at Bywell again once we’re all allowed to play out properly again

That's a very pretty boom stick. Happy anniversary to you and Mrs P.

Your enthusiasm is never in doubt Lloyd but is brimming over in this video. I’m chuffed for you. Good to hear you’re on the mend too. Thanks for sharing your Perazzi experience with us. Kudos on earning brownie points with Mrs P! Seriously though, congratulations to you both.

Congratulations on 10 year anniversary. For our 50th Anniversary we upgraded the wood on our mx8s to SC3. These guns are 35 years built for us in Italy. Wonderful live bird guns

It mounts so perfectly -- as it should. Absolutely stunning gun. Thanks for sharing -- it was a glorious clip.

Happy anniversary mate been waiting for this review Top as always thank you Kind regards

We can see ya love it , you've got a smile from ear to ear. Beautiful gun.

I have been waiting for this one... That is a spectacular shotgun. Your right, the Perazzi is “Elegant“. That is a perfect word for them. The grin on your face is priceless. Congratulations.

First of all happy anniversary to you and mrs P. Been waiting for you to do this one and what a beauty. 👍🏻👌🏻

Great upgrade from the krieghoff and from Mauro! Happy Anniversary to Mrs P and your good self 👍

My dream gun, really pleased you like yours and please keep the vids coming. All the best.

Time for another long term update on this shotgun, Lloyd . :) Thanks for the excellent reviews sir!

Happy anniversary! Gun looks stunning but more than that it's great to see it worked out for you in every way. I can see every future review ending in " It's not a bad gun for your money but it's no custom fit Perazzi!" ;-)

Happy anniversary LIoyd.... beautiful gun worth every penny sir,take care and stay safe.

Thats an awesome piece of wood. Every time you pick it up I bet it makes you smile :-) Glad its worked out so well.

Ordered one yesterday! Super excited, just a long wait...!

Loved it, keep them coming!

Very nice and that's an understatement, straight shooting 💥💥

I can't wait to see you shooting this beast

Nice one Lloyd, it's a lovely gun and have wedding anniversary

Fantastic video! Well done 👍 I want one so bad... hahaha. Congrats on the wedding anniversary. Celebrated 12yrs ourselves. Take care buddy

Hi lloyd I watched this last night on Patreon but couldn’t comment as I only have the basic Patreon! What a lovely gun i was surprised you went with a none adjustable trigger! Congratulations on your anniversary also

Lloyd 1st Happy Anniversary to you both. That a stunning gun, was looking at them at the gun show. Your wood if fantastic 👍👍 Hope your shooting again soon mate 👍

That is a lovely looking gun and a beautiful piece of wood, money well spent.👍

Absolutely stunning looking gun. You look smitten with the new P-gun.

Nice to see you happy and in a good health, Mr Mauro Perazzi is a great man . By the way you need a to add a red Perazzi sticker on that water bottle :)

I'm sitting here green with envy, looking at that glorious finished gun. I'm looking forward to seeing you shoot it. Hopefully in the not to distant future. My compliments on your anniversary. take care and stay safe. Qld. Aus.

Love the archery hat in a gun review. Beautiful Perazzi.

That’s a beautiful gun. Great choice Lloyd.

Good to see ya mate / now you are making me to go by this gun also

I own a Perazzi High Tech 33" Briley thin wall chokes, American Flag edition and it is absolutely astounding in balance, swing, and lack of recoil.....I too came from a K80 and I also took some time to trust the fit but it is coming around. Thanks for the review! Dave

Congrats on the new gun Lloyd! And fabulous wood by the way, I have Sc3 wood on my HT but it isn't as pretty as yours!

Perazzi is truly an amazing company!!!!

You couldn’t wipe that smile off of your face the whole video. That pretty much says it all about your Perazzi. Beautiful shotgun!

As soon as you raised that gun to the screen I had to stop and bump the vid res up to 1080p xD. Congrats on such a fine acquisition and an equally fine anniversary! ;-) PS -- I am also a big fan of the 32" barrels on my F16 -- wouldn't swap them for the world ::thumbs up::

Very nice Lloyd - 'nuff said really 😍

Congratulation to you and Mrs b for 10 years may you enjoy many many more together

Great video Lloyd, happy anniversary, the video was totally infectious and the excitement is still brimming over, I remember the visit like yesterday it was a blast ( excuse the pun ) until folk actually visit Perazzi , they don’t understand how bespoke the whole process is. For those who were thinking about it, this video show cement confidence in taking the plunge, I had contact with Mauro last week and I think he is quietly optimistic for the future, I think he mentioned the High Tech is now over 90% of the factory’s production. Again fantastic insight for your “ new baby “ enjoy and happy anniversary to you and Mrs P.

Absolutely beautiful gun and I am extremely jealous

congratulations

Great video and fantastic looking gun....

Amazing gun Lloyd. I know this review is almost 2 years old now, but happy 10th ( almost 12th ) anniversary to you and your lovely bride. I replayed this review as I missed the weight, but then noticed you said it weighs 8 and a bit. Must be an incredible lively gun for sure. The SC3 wood that Mauro picked out has to be the nicest I've ever seen. I shoot a K-80 Parcours, and it weighs 8#-6 ounces with 32" barrels. Watching this video, and others you have done, make me think I may also look at a Perazzi again. I owned one back in the early 1990's, a Mirage Sporting with 29.5" barrels which were a popular barrel length back then. I tried a 34" model but barrels seemed a tad too long for me. Well, Lloyd, maybe this summer I'll trade the K-80. Enjoy your reviews very much sir. Do you shoot 1 ounce loads most of the time at clays ? All the best my friend. Rob G. in Missouri

Lovely looking gun👍

Ever since I watched your trip to the factory I want to go and have a Perazzi built for me. I love my Blaser F3 Supersport, but I want the whole Italian experience.

Very good choices in that model’s offerings, Lloyd. Gorgeous wood…I like that little snake in the grip, too…those interesting, unique, nature-enhanced embellishments are always a curiosity for me. Outstanding!

That is a gorgeous gun that may be the most beautiful piece of wood I have ever seen I love it

Brilliant! 👍

Gorgeous bit of kit that mate, the argument of the pricing on the high end perazzi , krieghoff and the likes will always go on, i look at them like an old ferrari or porshe, hand crafted, one offs and their goal is to do what it has-put a smile on your face everytime you see it, so if you have the money go for it

Very nice!

Im glad you are enjoying your new gun it looks great! A question for you if you will , is there a reason why you didn’t choose leaf springs , I hear the triggers feel great ?

Finally!

Thank you for covering why you chose the monte carlo stock. It makes sense, fit is everything!

It’s a beauty

Only sad part about ordering a Perazzi is the wait to get it. I ordered myself a 2020 edition a few weeks ago, and it's gonna be a really long wait to get it. Let's hope I can get some wood that's half as great as yours and I'll be happy ;)

Perazzi high tech. No.1. Super.👍👍

I like the stock too

awesome !

Lovely gun! May I suggest you also do a video of the yildiz Pro sport and see how the "cheap copy" compares to your perazzi?!

Awesome Lloyd.This gun is an absolute masterpiece. Just wondering the reasons why you would not go for multichokes instead of the fixed chokes. Would have thought going with screw in chokes would make the gun more versatile. Skeet, trap and sporting.. Cheers

Your wood looks fantastic with an orange and black tone. What is the wood finish you selected, is it oil or lacquer?

Beautiful gun enjoy. Just wondering, did you consider going for the drop out trigger with the v springs also, what will you do with the 3/4 choke when we can no longer shoot lead ?

Hello Miguel, from Mexico. That is a gorgeous gun!!! Do you mention what you paid for ti? I think i missed it. If no... How much did you pay? Thanks and happy anniversary!!!

Would be interested to hear which upgrades you think represent must haves or perhaps good value? Love the stock!

Hi Lloyd as always great review, just wondering why you would bypass the possibility of detachable trigger group and ease of service vs fixed triggers, cost is almost the same. Also what constrictions in metric did you go for and why? you tal about half and three quarter but what exactly are they. have seen several P choked half and half 6 and 6 in metric and performing quite well. I am about to follow your steps and have my third P made!!!

that looks fantastic if you don't mind me asking what's your favourite game gun

Hi Lloyd, you mentioned that you went for the 18.4 bore in case you can only shoot fibre in the future. Have you thought of the choke constriction of 3/4 and shooting steel? Would you have this choke opened to half in the future, if as in Denmark we all have to give up shooting lead, even for target shooting, or would you be confident to shoot standard steel target loads through these fixed chokes? Just curious as I know this is a long term gun for you.

ahhhh true LOVE

Beautiful gun! No wonder you can´t stop smiling :-D

Hey Lloyd! What’s your opinion on the point-ability with the reverse taper rib compared to the regular tapered ribs perazzi offer on the mx8?

Beratta DT 11 ❤

how is the recoil compared to say a Beretta 687 or other mid grade O/Us? Why? Thanks and Happy anniversary!

Would you do a video about what you take when shooting and other accessories you may use. I see you use a cartridge pouch alot just wondering if share information about yours looking to get one but not seen many people to ask about quality etc. Cheers

May be a bit crass but with the extra wood what’s the over all cost inc travel and accommodation to get yourself a gun of that standard? PS happy anniversary

Beautiful gun Mr P. With the move to steel in the looming horizon wondered is it steel shot proof. Or new barrels would be needed. And yes another trip to Italy what a burden

Nice shotgun bro

I can see you're still in honeymoon with the gun, and it is a great gun indeed, I have one of my own wich I unfortunately stopped shooting because..... recoil. Yes, when I shot it a lot (like hundreds of shots a day) it punished my shoulder harder when compared to others (like DTs, K-80s, Brownings, etc). BTW, I did go to the factory and and had the stock set for me there. I currently shoot a F3, which I can shoot all day long with no disconfort whatsoever.... like I used to do with my previous 692.... And other guys in my club also agree that their Perazzis DO kick a little harder than other guns theys previously owned. Have you noticed anything like that?

beautiful gun. I have one question if I may. I noticed you have a quirky gun mount. the gun out of your shoulder is slightly tilted off the vertical. us this something you're aware of, not aware of, deliberate, or just evolved as your style over time? I mention it as I myself have videoed myself and the gun is bolt upright before mounting. thanks.

Browning b725s review? Happy anniversary. Beautiful peace of kit

What an honour to be custom fitted and made for you Lloyd. What would a setup like that roughly set the average bear back because I know the average price of the standard Hi tech.

Don’t know if it’s been asked before, but how did you go about choosing a high tech over the other models offered?

Any chance of a Yildiz Pro review? Would really be interested in your thoughts...

Three years later, is the "fixed" Monte Carlo still in play? Great choice on trigger option IMHO, excellent content.

hi, how does the DT11 black compare to the Hi Tech in sporter model? wanting to buy one just not sure what one would be the better all rounder.. cheers

Blimey Loyd get a room

Great review as always! can i ask the cost of this beauty?

Excellent gun Lloyd. Can i ask how much dit it cost you?

SO…. If there were only two guns… would you pick the krieghoff or the perazzi???

Hi Lloyd, you mention that your gun has 32 inch barrels. How does it perform on close targets or you do not shoot any ?

Just stumbled across your channel. Wondering if the factory pay for you to visit them or pay your own way. Have subscribed. Cheers from Adelaide, Australia.

Hi you've said the gun weighs in at just over 8lb, so what weight barrels did you choose pls . Great looking gun

Lloyd I live in the US and the Perazzi USA HQ is a short plane ride away as we're both on the West Coast. I spoke with the USA Manager Al and he said he can do a gun fitting for me here at the USA HQ. The gun would still be all made to measure and I'd get to see the products there in person but I would sacrifice the chance to actually go to the factory in Italy and have the final fitting done. Do you think it's worth to fly from the US to Italy for the factory fitting or should I trust the USA HQ to get all the measurements and choices right for me?

Any chance of reviewing the krieghoff kx6 special ? I don’t think there’s a single review on KZfaq.

Wow, what about the Beretta, Kri=egoff, etc... man you must own a dozen of these shotguns, which I envy very much. The best shotgun that I can afford is the Beretta 686 silver pigeon which is fantastic for me.

Hi Lloyd How wide is the action compared to the K-80?

Beautiful wood. Is it an oiled finish or a lacquer?

Very nice gun. What does a custom gun cost ?

I am looking at the high tech 3 for Olympic trap is there a difference in price from bespoke or getting one from a gun shop

I'd be curious to learn how did you decide to switch from Krieghoff to Perazzi... (It crossed my mind someone else could've asked the question meanwhile... but there are so many comments, I just can't go through all of them to find out...)

Any further news on the Yildiz Pro review..?
