The NEW Perazzi MR57: Their Best Shotgun Yet? Full Review

The Perazzi MR57 is finally here! It's been 11 years since Perazzi last built a new platform. We traveled to Italy and got hands-on with the MR57 even before dealers had them, breaking down the redesigned receiver, the reengineered barrels, the rearward balance, and how it actually moves on the range. If you've ever wondered what makes a Perazzi a Perazzi, this one's a fun look at where they're taking it next. What do you think MR stands for?
