Caesar Guerini Invictus VII Sporting
Caesar Guerini S.r.l. · Shotgun · In Production · 2014
Also known as: Invictus VII, Invictus 7 Sporting
Overview
The Caesar Guerini Invictus VII Sporting is a top-grade 12-gauge over-under break-action shotgun built for high-volume competitive sporting clays. It combines the proprietary Invictus locking system, with replaceable locking cams that let the gun be rebuilt to factory tolerances after heavy use, with a hand-polished coin-finished action wearing deep-scroll engraving and gold-inlaid game scenes that mark the VII as one of the highest engraving grades in the Invictus line. Standard equipment includes the DPS ultra-crisp adjustable trigger, 5-inch DuoCon forcing cones, a chrome-lined bore, six MAXIS competition chokes, and a hand-rubbed oil-finished Turkish Circassian walnut stock.
